Default Header & Footers

I am using Office 2007 and I have created a Letterhead document. If the
person who is typing a letter and it is more than one page, both the header
and footer carry over to the next page. I would like to only have the footer
follow through after page one and I am not able to find out how to do that.
Please let me know how that can be done.

Thank you.

Ruth

Default Header & Footers

There are at least two ways to do this. One would be to insert a section
break after page 1, and to turn off Same as Previous for headings in section
2.

Another way--and perhaps simpler--is to enable the Different First Page
option. This will take care of the header issue--Word usually assumes that
you want nothing on page 1's header, and something thereafter. It's a simple
matter to copy the header onto page 1 and delete it from page 2--and the
Different First Page option means that Word will honor what you're doing,
and not change it.

You then copy the footer from page 2 and paste it into the 1st page footer
(or vice versa... depending on what Word assumes when you enable the
Different First Page option.
