= SUMMARY =

When creating two top running heads (one for odd-numbered pages and one for even-numbered pages), Word automatically generates both the odd and even top running heads on the first page of each division in a document. This occurs when the fields of the Format Running-head menu are set as follows:

Odd-Page Running Head Even-Page Running Head ——————— ———————-

Position: Top Position: Top Odd pages: Yes Odd pages: No Even pages: No Even pages: Yes First page: Yes First page: Yes

Each time a new division is encountered, Word determines the appropriate running head. However, when the Format Running-Head “first page:” field is set to Yes, the program will place both the odd page and the even page running heads on the first page of each existing division. This also applies to bottom running heads.

Word 5.00 does this formatting by program design. This is a change from Word version 4.00.
