URGENT-Need Various Footers

[Roberta]

I have a large document someone gave me. Every 3 or 4 pages I need a
different footer and on some pages when I change the footer, it changes all
the other page footers above it up until a certain page. What should I do on
the page before or after the page I need a difffernt foot?

You need to be more explicit about what would be on the different footer,
and why. Often changes to footers are best handled using a StyleRef field.
Others can be handled well using a conditional field that only displays text
on certain pages. Take a look at
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumbering.htm.

Another method is to adopt different first page headers/footers and/or
different even/odd h/f. Yet others require section breaks with or without
"same as previous."

You may need section breaks, or it's possible a StyleRef field will suffice.
