Headers - same as previous page

J

jimz

Have a multi-page document in WORD. The first page is the coverpage, which has no header. I've checked "differenct first page". At the end of each page I've inserted a section break. On page two I inserted my header in the text box and indicated "same as previous" on the remaining pages. The printed document has no header on the cover page [okay so far], the header prints on page 2, but not on any of the subsequent pages.

Why all the section breaks? Each section starts with a new first page. See

With a Section Break after each page, each page is the first page in a
Section and you have Section 1 set up so that there is no header on the
first page, so with the headers in each section set to be the same as
previous, you will get no header on the firstpage of each of them as well.

If you remove all of the section breaks (Use Edit>Replace and search for ^b
and replacing it with nothing, everything should fall into place.
