Different Headers/Footers on Each Page?

[Bob]

I've been going crazy trying to figure this out.

Is there any way to create a document with different headers/footers on
each page for printing?

Thanks,

Bob

Hi Bob,
if each page is another section, then each page may have
another header or footer. BTW, the very concept of headers
and footers is repetition. Be sure, to set the property
linktoprevious = false.

Helmut,

Thanks for your reply. In reality, every page won't have a different
header/footer, but some pages will have headers/footers and some won't, but
I don't think that will affect my solution.

It looks like a different section for each page almost. Don't worry the
sections are rather robust. I do this for my racing stats; each section
is a different race and some documents can have more sections than a
discected centipede!

If the text which is to be the header/footer is in the document, you could
look at the styleref field (you essentially mark the text in the document
with a unique style, then you define the page header/footer using a styleref
field and tell it to find the text nearest to the current page (if not on
the current page) in the specified style). It has an undocumented
limitation of 255 characters. It's like a kind of cross reference field.
