Headers & Footers
I am using Word 2000
I am creating letterhead. On Page one, at the top I have the Co logo, name and address. On the bottom I put a footer with our telephone numbers. Then on Page 2 - I put in a header, with just our logo, and checked the box in page set up so that the header does not appear on the first page. But now my footer only appears on the 2nd page and not the first. I want the footer to stay on the first page and not on the second page. What can I do to make this work? Aurora |

Headers & Footers
You need to cut the contents of your footer and put it in the first-page
footer. That setting takes both the header and footer as a unit. 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. (It also has the following links) Some other pages to look at: Letterhead Tips and Instructions http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial http://addbalance.com/word/download....StylesTutorial Template Basics http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm How to Create a Template - Part 2 - essential reading http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Custom...platePart2.htm Word "Forms" http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordw...rces.htm#Forms and Word for Word Perfect Users http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordperfect.htm if you are coming from a WP environment (or even if you are not). If you are interested in creating templates that will work with the letter wizard or use that wizard, you should look at the chapter on Advanced Document Formatting in Using Office 2003 (or whatever your version is), Special Edition, by Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard. It has detailed instructions including instructions on getting the fields you want from your Outlook Contacts for addressing a letter. (Chapter 19 of SE Using Office 2003) You should be able to get this through your public library or at Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/IS...ncecheckbookA/ Finally, take a look at the letter templates that come with Word. While they are no great shakes as letterhead, they do use styles and AutoText lists very well. If you use the same style names that are used in those templates in your own letterhead for the same parts of the document, you will have better luck with using the built-in AutoText entries in Word.

Headers & Footers
Thank you - This article was very helpful. I knew I had done this before,
but couldn't figure out why it was not working correctly this time. Thank you again. Aurora "Carol" wrote: See: http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm -- Carol A.
