I have three quick questions regarding MS Word (97). Feel free to respond
privately.
1. Is there a way to put the current page's Heading X in the header or footer?
I'm having trouble figuring this out.
2. I've lost the color palletes in the Text Color and Text Background drop down
menus. How do I get the colors back?
3. I'm writing a document that includes many multiple-page tables. Is there any
way to get word to intelligently insert table breaks at the bottom of a page and
start the next page with the appropriate (static) column headings?
I usually think of myself as a Word expert, but these have got me stumped. TIA!
