SUMMARY
In the Microsoft Works for Windows Word Processor, you can automatically print header and footer information such as page numbers, filenames, and dates.

Use the single-line header or footers for brief information, or use the header or footer paragraphs if more information or formatting is desired.

Single-line headers/footers may be formatted by typing the appropriate letters from the Single-Line column below. Paragraph header/footers may be formatted by selecting the text in the header/footer and choosing the command listed in the Paragraph column below.
