I will like to setup a macro-I think- that will printe the company's
letterhead - a header & footer - on the 1st page of the document only.

Any ideas? Are there already macros for this? Third party?

Thanks,
Raul Rego

Go to File, Page setup, click the Layout tab and check the "Different first
page" checkbox. You can now put graphics for the letterhead in the first
page header, and they will only print on the first page.

Thanks, how do I automate it so that I could put an icon in the toolbar for
end users to do insert this letterhead with this option?

Thanks again,
Raul Rego

Save the contents of the header as an Autotext entry. Have your macro insert
the AutoText entry into the appropriate header. The toolbar button runs the
macro.
