Default Word 2003 header/footer template quest

Howdy all..

I've created a .dot template with a logo in the header and address in the
footer and it works great. Except I only want the header logo on the first
page, I do want the footer address on all pages.

I've tried adding a section break at the bottom of the second page and
un-attaching it from the the previous, which sorta works (but not, because
it creates a second blank page immediately and it may not be needed). I want
it so my user can just keep typing and if he exceeds the length of the first
page it will flow onto the second/third pages without header logos (just
footer address)....without him having to do anything other than keep typing.

What have I missed?

Tnx,

What you've missed is using the "Different first page" setting; you can put
the same content in the First Page Footer and the Footer. See
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm for examples.

It does require a leap of faith to believe that Word will "remember" what
you can't see. What's even more eerie is what happens if you're dealing with
a document that once had "Different first page" (or "Different odd and
even") enabled, but it has been turned off. You enable it and the old
header/footer (possibly created by someone else) surfaces. This freaks a lot
of users out.

yep it was driving me nuts...and would never (ever) figured it out without
that tute.

I must admit I did try to fix it without creating the second page first (i'm
a contrarian, what can i tell ya) but finally gave in and did it like your
site outlined.

You can certainly do it first page first, but then you have to insert a
temporary page break to create the second page.

It certainly makes them invisible, but if you add enough text to fill the
first page, then the Header and Footer appear on the second page.
