= SUMMARY =

To use two or more different headers/footers within a Microsoft Word document, place a section break on the page where the new header/footer should appear. However, the new header/footer may not actually appear until the following page.

The header/footer text inserted in a new section does not take effect until after a page break. If this new formatting is applied before the end of a page with the section start set to No Break, the new header/footer will not appear until the following page. To correct this problem, set the section start to New Page, or place the section break at the top of the page where a new header/footer should begin. When you define the header/footer, make sure the cursor is in the appropriate section.
