Header and footer are used to diplay contents in more than one page. Is there a way wherein i can make it display only for the pages i want. For. eg. certain headings for a report, i want to display only from page 2 to page 10. page 1 and pages after page 10 have nothing to do with this header.

can anyone help me?

Yes dear, in ms-word you can use section brack command to split the header and footers

Hi Dashrath, I am also facing the same problem as Kartik has and also tried the section break command But could not get the desired result. Can you through some more light on this aspect? Thank you in advance

I got a mail from one person. what he said was to select page set up in header and footer, click layout and under headers and footers, select different first page. but it excludes only first page and appears in all other pages.

As I see, one can have maximum three headers in a MS WORD document, described as follows :

1. A Different header/footer for first page
2. A different header/foorer for even pages (but all even pages will carry same h/f)
3. A different header/foorer for odd pages (but all odd pages will carry same h/f)

The same is with Star / Open Office Suite.
