Word should let me go direct from text to footer
I frequently want to edit the Footer in Text documents but do not want to
change the Header, and I find it inconvenient that I have to reach the Footer by way of the Header. I would like a route direct from the text to the Footer |

If you're in Print Layout view, you can double-click on the footer to edit
it. -- Suzanne S.

Hi Jack,
In addition to Suzanne's suggestion, you can make a toolbar button to jump to the footer. Open the Tools Customize dialog. Select View in the Categories list, then scroll down almost to the bottom to find View Footer. Grab that with your mouse and drag it to any toolbar; when you see a thick I-beam between existing buttons, drop it there. There isn't an image assigned to this command by default, but you can add one. Right-click your new (text) button, click Change Button Image, and choose one of the pictures (maybe the pair of footprints?). Right-click it again and choose Default Style to get rid of the text. Then close the Customize dialog. When you exit Word, you should be asked whether to save Normal.dot; say yes. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org On Wed, 1 Dec 2004 17:02:30 -0600, "Suzanne S.
