I am wanting to create my own letter header, I would like to gradient fill
the header or footer, but do not know how. Can this be done? I currently
have a template with gradient fills but it is a text box and that moves the
footer when I type, making it annoying to have to fix when I am done typing.
Any help appreciated, thanks!

You'll need to use an AutoShape (Behind Text) anchored to your header and
footer paragraphs. For more on headers, footers, and letterhead, see
