#HOW TO HAVE DIFFERENT HEADERS ON EACH PAGE WORD HOW TO#
Please, I beg you … kill me now or tell me how to remove my header from page 2! So while I approach my 2nd heart attack and am about ready to uninstall this crap and pay Microsoft whatever it is they are asking, my wife suggested I see if someone else has had some luck with this truly herculean task. So I click on properties of my page 1 footer, manually copy-paste all the little centimeter numbers (I mean REALLY?!? - in 2018 I am manually copying values here?!?) into the properties of my page 2 footer … but wait … the 1cm space around my page 2 footer remains. Neither the formatting nor the spacing to the text are the same as on page 1. So then, intuitive as I am, I simply copy-paste the footer from page 1 onto page 2, but once again, no sir. So although I seem to have created my new style starting as a copy from the default, it seems that I didn’t after all. While the header is indeed gone on page 2, the page 2 footer is now gone as well (although I had selected to keep it when creating the style).

First off, seriously? If I just want to change the header in 1 single document on 1 single page I really need to define a whole new style? I mean at this rate I will have 100 styles defined within the year. Then, after some googling I found the (apparent) style solution. The content may be gone, but the empty space remains. OK, first I simply tried what normal people would intuitively do and delete the header on page 2. While I appreciate the open source effort, I have to say that the simple task of having a different header on the second page of a document while maintaining the same footer is mind-numbingly ridiculous.
