What are the 10 most common problems in using headers and footers when using
different first pages? For 10 years I've recommended that users avoid them
unless they have to. I spent another several hours this morning trying to
learn how to get the section headers not to

insert section page break at bottom of file

insert hard Page so you can have a nonfirst page header

view header

break link

page setup different first page

go to footer and break link

go to page format, break link, select start at new page number 1

go back to header

make sure you're in current section NOT first page, break link if it changed
back on you

insert your non-first page header

move to first page header make sure it's empty

go to prior section, make sure it's not been linked to later section's
headers,

then do the same whole sequence for the footers

ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL TO BREAK THE LINK EACH TIME YOU ENTER A HEADER OR
FOOTER BOX BEFORE ANY TEXT ENTRY. Any text entry seems to replace the prior
sections headers instantly.

YOU CANNOT PLACE A HEADER FOR NON-FIRST PAGE HEADERS UNTIL AFTER YOU MAKE A
SECOND PAGE.
