Anyone have a pointer as to how I can delete all text in a word 2000
header?

I tried this within a for each and while it works, it also seems to
make the doc always open in Normal mode. The docs usually open in
preview mode. Keep normal mode no matter what. Strange.

              hdrHeader.Range.Select
              hdrHeader.Range.Text = ""

Then I've tried setting the text to white so that it doesn't show:

              hdrHeader.Range.Font.Color = wdColorWhite

But that only works on some machines.

thanks
