How to have different HEADERS in Word | Different headers on each page

[@endlessrecursion9523]

I almost lost my mind trying to figure this out. Thank you so much.

[@LisaDoe]

You are so welcome!

[@shainad5980]

This helped so much! They need to tweak word to make it easier.

[@MaryDeanDotCom]

For people using Windows, the procedure is: LAYOUT > BREAKS > SECTION PAGE > NEXT PAGE ... and then... INSERT > HEADER > EDIT HEADER > "Uncheck" the "Same as previous" button. This is a GREAT tutorial. I am using headers as titles on piles of 3x5 cards that I am printing directly on my laser printer, and now I can keep them all in one file with separate sections instead of lots of separate files. I LOVE this technique. Also, I have always used "View > Normal" to get out of Header/Footer view, but now I know to just doubleclick on the page. You're the best!

Very helpful. Word must be the most unintuitive successful program ever made. Very maddening. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@linetediaz.807]

Thank you so much for your video! This was completely easy to follow. Other videos missed the key points to start after completing your document and most importantly to insert the page break at the end of the page. Thank you again!

[@MilesLinklater]

Very helpful regarding the headers. Now I need to learn how to have different margins on Page 1.

[@danieldirt4915]

Could not for the life of me figure out why only the second half of the headers in our doc updated. There was a section break for formatting on the signatures page, so when our employee updated the header later in the document it automatically unlinked that section and only updated the second half. You're a lifesaver!

[@LisaDoe]

Oh no! Glad you found the error : )

Just keep the headers unlinked when making a new section and the footers linked.

Do the section break protected? I cannot delete the section break and make the new section break. Appreciate any help.

Hold down your CMD/CTRL key whilst clicking on the section break, then press delete. Then go ahead and make your new section break.

Great video, thanks a lot, best one so far! Do you have one explaining how to not have a header on the first page of a section for such things as chapters? Thanks!

No I don't, but you can just split the document again into another section following the same principles.

@@LisaDoe Hi, I think I've worked it out. It involves setting new sections and then having the page numbers at the bottom continue on from the previous section. But your video helped me work this out, thanks a lot.

I am doing this process, but changing a header text in each section, still changes every other header in the OTHER sections, and they are not linked.

I need help asap😭 I do exactly as u said in this video but the moment i close my header, previous headers also are changed. I'm editing and script so I want to have different headers in each chapter, no footers needed. I choose "Next Page" from "Breaks" menu, then i double click the header in the new section. I deselect the "Link to previous" then type my new header text. But when i double click on the body or close the header, my previous section's header is changed too. Idk what to do😭😭😭

[@LisaDoe]

Are you changing the links where you have a SECTION BREAK? The section break is important as it determines where the link is made.

[@galinejanjeguianmokhtar1767]

how can we show the menu bar? is it differente from the ribbon?

[@LisaDoe]

The menu bar should be at the very top of your screen.

[@galinejanjeguianmokhtar1767]

I only have the ribbon and i don't know how to show the menu bar

[@MaryDeanDotCom]

@@galinejanjeguianmokhtar1767 I had the same problem. On my computer you do this on the "ribbon": LAYOUT>BREAKS>SECTION PAGE>NEXT PAGE and then... INSERT>HEADER>EDIT HEADER>(uncheck "Same as previous" and then edit your header)

[@stuksy4321]

Can you make a template with a first page top margin different than the subsequent pages top margin (which would be smaller than the first page?) That don't use sections. Would like it be be easy to open and begin typing and it automatically goes to the different-margin second page as you type.

[@LisaDoe]

Sadly you have to use sections :(

i still dont get it. why cant I just type what page it is...this is so frustrating.

[@LisaDoe]

You can. Use a TEXT BOX (because you can move it anywhere on your page) and type each individual number into the box on each page. Make sure it's not in the headers and footers but in the main document.

Now I see why books take so long to make, the authors spend more time putting the page number than actually writing the book. This system SUCKS.
