I have created a tempate that has a different first page header/footer and
odd/even headers/footers for the rest of the document.  I want to start the
second page of the document as two even columns (the first page is not in
columns).  Users are not regular Word users, therefore I have a macro that
does that for them (see below).  However, when you run the macro the odd/even
page header that has been set up changes and instead the header for the first
page is inserted.  The code finds the first character on the current page,
inserts a continuous section break and sets up 2 even spaced columns.  Does
anyone know why it plays havoc withthe header?  I'd be really interested to
know and grateful for a solution.

The code is:

Sub ConvertToColumns()

'converts the contents of the current page to two equal columns

' moves to te left of the first character at the top of the current page

Selection.Bookmarks("\Page").Select
Selection.Collapse wdCollapseStart
   
'creates a continuous section break and two even columns

   With Selection.PageSetup.TextColumns
       .SetCount NumColumns:=2
       .EvenlySpaced = True
       .LineBetween = False
       .Width = CentimetersToPoints(6.69)
       .Spacing = CentimetersToPoints(1.27)
   End With
 
'moves to the right of the last character on the page window (not to footer)
Selection.Bookmarks("\Page").Select
Selection.Collapse wdCollapseEnd

End Sub

Thanks for any help
