firstpage header inserts when i change page orientation - help??.
I have a template that has headers and footers that are different from the
first page. But when I try to change the orientation of a new page, from portrait to landscape, Microsoft Word inserts the first page headers! How can I stop that from happening?? |

When you change the orientation of a page, Word automatically inserts section breaks so that page becomes its own section (it has to do that because orientation is a section property). The new section inherits the "different first page" setting of the previous one. Since the new page is the first page of the new section, you get the first-page header. Because the new header defaults to "Same as Previous", you get the same text as in the first-page header of the preceding section. To fix this, you can do one of these: - In File Page Setup Layout, turn off "Different first page" and set the Apply To box to "This section". If there other sections following the landscape page, you'll need to do the same to those sections. - If you want to keep the header on the landscape page in the portrait position, see http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...apeSection.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

Turn off "Different first page" for that section.
