Making a Form to use as an office standard.
I'm trying to create a form that we're going to be using as an office
standard, and I have most of it figured out, however I'm wondering if there is a way to change certain aspects of the file if the document exceeds more than 1 page. In essence I want to create an if statement, that says if the document exceeds 1 page insert "a header" on to the second page and all subsequent pages, and move the footer to the last page only. |

You don't need an IF field for the header; enable "Different first page" and
then create a First Page Header and a Header (for details, see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm); the Header will appear on the second and subsequent pages, if any. For the last-page footer, you need: { IF { PAGE } = { NUMPAGES } "Text you want on the last page" } All pairs of field delimiters (the things that look like braces but can't be typed from the keyboard) must be inserted using Ctrl+F9. -- Suzanne S.

To add to the information provided by Susan, you should also be creating
this as a Template and to make it as easy as possible to use, especially for dealing with the header information, if not other things, the template should contain a user form. See the article "How to create a Userform" at: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm and for more advanced information, see the following page of fellow MVP Greg Maxey's website: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Create_and...a_UserForm.htm -- Hope this helps.
