MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Word for MS-DOS, version 5.5, if you choose Layout from the View menu, the Header/Footer command will be unavailable on the Format menu. As in Word version 5.0, you cannot edit headers or footers in layout view. This is by program design.

To enable the Headerscommand, exit layout view by selecting Layout from the View menu again.

Note: LY appears on the status bar (at the bottom of the Word screen) when you are in layout view.
