My even pages won't show the footer ?
Lizaan 12/10/2008 6:58:01 AM
Hi. Everytime I try to insert page numbers in my document, and select the
different odd and even pages button, my even pages' footers completely
disappears. As in there is aboslutely nothing! My odd pages are fine though.

That's the whole point of different odd and even header/footers - they are
different. If you want the page number on both you have to add it to both.

I know that, all my other documents work fine... (it really is extremely hard
to explain) but the problem is that my even pages won't activate the footer
at all, meaning I can double click on the bottom all I want or do it via the
insert tab and nothing happens and the footers only appear on the odd
pages... So basically I can not add anything to the even pages... My headers
show on both the odd and even pages but not the footers...

If you insert a temporary page break or have a document that comprises at
least two pages and you open the header/footer view you can scroll down to
view odd and even page header/footers. Are you saying that Word will not
allow you to type in both the odd and even page footers?
