I am doing this correctly and it has worked fine int the past. It was this
one time trying to put a header on all pages but the first, even with the check on "Different First Page" the header showed on the first page as well. It was weird. Pulled up a blank template and tried it, worked fine. Just not on the template, identical to the blank, I was wokring in at the time. Had to go to the second page and try the header there with the different first page check, then it worked. If I copied what I typed to the same but new (blank) template it worked fine. Strange. That is why I asked the question regarding an intermitent problem with the header feature. I know that this is true with the autotext auto correct feature when expecting it to always popup with a suggestion 100% of a time. I use F3 now, which works much better. -- KM1 "Charles Kenyon" wrote: This is not a known intermittent problem in Word. It is probably directly related to how your template is set up. Take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages. http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step instructions.

My understanding is that when you want to insert a header that will not appear on the first page but will on all subsequent pages all you need to do is: click on view / header - type header on first page / click on page setup on header toolbar / click on layout tab / click on different first page / apply to whole document / click OK Then the header will appear on page 2 and on subsequent pages but not on page one. However, when I did this in a template I have for work it showed up on all pages. If I pulled up a new template and tried it again it worked. Is there a better way to set these up and is this some type of problem in Word 2003 that causes this to happen intermitently. KM1 -- KM1 |
