Subject:MS Word and Headers & Footers From:"Laurel Robinson" <laurel_robinson -at- hotmail -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Wed, 29 Aug 2001 12:17:37 -0700
This is my first post to this list. I have tried searching the archives for
information (and numerous other places as well!) on how on earth to
correctly add headers and footers to my MS Word document.
I'm a lone technical writer/ contractor and have been with my client for
about 8 months. They insist on having all documentation done in MS Word. I
am finishing up a 130 pg document, and have been struggling with Word to
have the Headers to turn out correctly.
Specifically:
I have about 9 chapters, each chapter needs to be it's own section for the
headers. I have each section set up with a different 1st page heading, and
different odd and even page headings. The problem I am having is that
although I set this all up correctly ( I think) when I go back to review the
previous sections, somehow these additional section breaks (continuous) keep
popping up! I have removed from the master document and they still keep
appearing screwing up all of the headings.
I hope this post isn't too long or re-hashing a topic recently covered.
If anyone knows the mystery of how to figure this out, I would be elated!
Thank you!
Laurel
