Thread: Insert multiple rtf files and retain headers/footers

Insert multiple rtf files and retain headers/footers
carusso 12/8/2008 10:00:01 PM
I am trying to append a Word document with multiple rtf files, all having
different headers/footers, using Insert/Object/From File. I am inserting the
rtf file between 2 Next Page Section breaks. Sometimes the header & footer
carries thru to the Word doc, and sometimes it does not.
Does anyone know if there is anything different I should be doing using rtf
files?
Thanks!

Thanks, Nina. I had already read that FAQ document. It states you have to
use a Continuous Page Break. But that didn't work. After a bunch of trial
and error, I finally just got it working, making sure there was always a Next
Page Section break at the end of the document, positioning my cursor just
before the break, and inserting the file. So far, so good! (Also, had to
change the header/footer on the new section for inserting files so they
weren't "Same As Previous.)
