Different image on the header
Hi!
I want to have a different header image on the first page and different header image for rest of the document. But the text in the headers should be the same. Meaning that, all the headers have the same text but only first header should have a different image. Please tell me how can I do this. I'm using Word 2003. |

Different image on the header
Within the Page Setup, select Different First Page. Now you will have a
different Header (and Footer) for the first page of this section, in other words you can edit this without affecting the rest of the section.

Different image on the header
Thanks for the reply, but as I explained earlier, the headers contains text
as well, which is same on all the pages, so if I change the header or any page, it should be updated on all the pages, including the first page. In your solution, I've to explicitly change the text in first page header. I just want to change the logo on the first page, the text should remain the same as the rest of the document, and should also be updated if any of the page's header is changed. Please help.

Different image on the header
That's not how headers work. Consider them as completely independent
unconnected entities. If you want the text to be the same in both headers, copy it to both headers.

Rashdan, I did understand your first posting but I don't think it is
possible. If you want a different Header for the first page, you cannot do what you want, ie have the text (and only the text) to still change across headers. You can play with bookmarks and cross-references, but again you will need to open the second header and update these anyway. As References within the Header/Footer level do not update automatically or with going to normal/print view trick. Maybe someone else can hop in here with a suggestion if one exists. All the best.

Different image on the header
You could abandon the different headers and use a conditional field eg
{IF {Page} = 1 "Insert the first page image here" "Insert the subsequent pages image here"} -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org DeanH wrote: Rashdan, I did understand your first posting but I don't think it is possible.

Of course! (slap-forehead) always forget about these conditional fields.
