Create a different header or footer method for a Word document

When you create a header or footer, Word automatically uses the same header or footer in the entire document. To create a header or footer that differs from other parts of a document, you need to section the document and then disconnect the header or footer from the current section and the previous section.

⑴ If you haven't already done a section on a document, you need to insert a section break at the beginning of a new section that you want to use a different header or footer;

⑵ Click the section for which you want to create a different header or footer;

⑶ Click Header and Footer on the View menu. The Header and Footer tool window appears;

⑷ Click the Previous button on the Header and Footer toolbar, as shown in Figure 1.4.34;

⑸ Modify an existing header or footer, or create a new header or footer for the section. Word automatically makes the same changes to the headers or footers in subsequent sections.

⑹ to create a different header or footer for the next section, repeat steps 1 through 5.
