See the "Preserving section formatting when using Insert + File"
section in the article at http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...thSections.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "tonyq" wrote in message ... please could anyone tell me if the following is possible in word 2003.

If you insert section breaks between the inserted documents, each can have
its own headers. However what you end up with is also affected by whether the documents all use the same styles. Unless the originals are all similarly styled, trying to combine them with formatting preserved is usually far more trouble than it's worth. If you're just trying to create a composite output, a simpler method is to output each document to PDF, then combine the PDFs using Acrobat.

I have now been able to do what I wanted to do, due to the help,from you all.
My next problem is, I need to start the page numbering on the second page displaying page one. In short nothing on the first page, page one displaying on page two, if that makes sense . -- Regards tonyq "Jezebel" wrote: If you insert section breaks between the inserted documents, each can have its own headers.

For this specific situation (it won't work in any other), check "Different
first page" on the Layout tab of Page Setup (for Section 1 only) and set the starting number at 0 in the Format Page Number dialog. -- Suzanne S.
