MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / March 2005Tricky Template stuff...Different graphics on the first page
Now that I can successfully embed graphics into a template, here is my next question... Once you create a multipage document, you can change the header/footers, but how do you set up a template to use a different header/footer automatically on a subsequent page if the page is not created yet? Of course, this involves a different graphic. I assume that there is some vbcoding involved - the real question is how would you store the graphic in the template. Thanks! Mike You can either set up the Header first, before checking "Different first page," then set up the First Page Header, or you can insert a page break temporarily. In either case, Word will remember the Header even if your template is only one page. For more, see http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm  SignatureSuzanne S.

Take a look at: How to set up letterhead or some other document where you want one header on the first page and a different header on other pages. http://www.addbalance.com/word/headersfooters.htm This gives step-by-step instructions. (It also has the following links) Some other pages to look at: Letterhead Tips and Instructions http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/Letterhead.htm Letterhead Textboxes and Styles tutorial http://addbalance.com/word/download.htm#LetterheadTextboxesAndStylesTutorial Template Basics http://www.addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm How to Create a Template - Part 2 - essential reading http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Customization/CreateATemplatePart2.htm Word "Forms" http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordwebresources.htm#Forms and Word for Word Perfect Users http://www.addbalance.com/word/wordperfect.htm if you are coming from a WP environment (or even if you are not). If you are interested in creating templates that will work with the letter wizard or use that wizard, you should look at the chapter on Advanced Document Formatting in Using Office 2003 (or whatever your version is), Special Edition, by Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard. It has detailed instructions including instructions on getting the fields you want from your Outlook Contacts for addressing a letter. (Chapter 19 of SE Using Office 2003) You should be able to get this through your public library or at Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0789729555/balancecheckbookA/ Finally, take a look at the letter templates that come with Word. While they are no great shakes as letterhead, they do use styles and AutoText lists very well. If you use the same style names that are used in those templates in your own letterhead for the same parts of the document, you will have better luck with using the built-in AutoText entries in Word.
