Footers
I'm working on a 71-page document in Word 2007, which I am new to. The
document was composed of different documents cut & pasted together...some are charts, some are forms, and some are from older versions of Word. I need to put several different footers in different sections. First of all, is that possible? Secondly, when I attempted to do so myself, often times two or more subsequent pages (for example, pages 2-7) will all read page 2. And, somewhere down in page 15, it reverts back to page 2. I've tried linking & unlinking sections, deleting all footers and starting over again, etc., to no avail. One of the footers I need is {text page# text} starting on the page after the TOC. The TOC (3 pages) needs a separate footer. The last section of the document (exhibits) needs yet a different footer. Any hope? -- OcCher |

Footers
Read thoroughly (until you fully understand them) the articles at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumbering.htm and http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm. Between them, these will answer all your questions. -- Suzanne S.

Footers
I am trying to create a somewhat complex document that begins with an agenda,
then has minutes from 2 meetings, Excel financial statements, etc. I would like to have a single footer with page x of y that is on every page, but headers that change in the different sections, including only the page numbers for that section. For example: "September Minutes, page x of y". I cannot seem to make these two different commands both work. I have read the pages you linked to, but cannot find any information on a different set of commands for the header as opposed to the footer. -- Carrot Top "Suzanne S.

Footers
It is certainly simple to have footers that are linked between sections and
headers that are not, but it is extremely complex to have both "whole numbers" (continuous throughout the document) and page numbers that restart in each section. -- Suzanne S.

Well, at least I know I'm not crazy now... ;-)
I'll quit trying to make this document do something impossible. Thanks for confirming my suspicions. -- Carrot Top "Suzanne S.
