Go to the view menu Press enter on header and footer. Type the title. Press the alt key and then control tab until you hear the toolbar for headers and footers. It should say insert auto text. Arrow down to page and hit enter. You should be back in the header. At this point you should have the title and page. Here you can manipulate the type as you would in Word, point size, font, alignment. To have numbering pick up on the second page, go to the insert menu, enter on page numbers and uncheck show number on first page. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yardbird" <yardbird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 03, 2005 10:42 PM Subject: Re: want help with headers in Word 2000 Debbie, Do you know how to include a changing page number in a header? I don't mean by using the Insert/Date and time feature, I mean within a header. Let's say you're creating a document of five or so pages about creating headers using Jaws. You want the header to begin on page 2, so, as Judith suggested, you go to the beginning of page 2 before beginning your header. Now, let's say you want the header to read Headers-- 2 on this page, header-- 3 on the next, etc. (Francis, I know you don't like the appearance of this style of header, but it's required in certain professional areas). I remember from a few years ago, a few versions of Word ago, that you would type the text you wanted, Headers, in this case, and the em dash, a space, and then a certain code that told Word to insert the current page number. I don't know how it's done, now, and have a lot of trouble accessing my word help with Jaws in Word 2000. Do you know how this is done, currently? Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Debbie Kessler" <jessesgirl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 03, 2005 9:30 PM Subject: Re: want help with headers in Word 2000 To add to this header discussion; I often add auto text to my header like the file name, file and path, and or the date created. You can then also press the down arrow and create a footer. Auto text has the page number x of y so your numbers show as say page 1 of 2. If you add more pages, your footer will adjust accordingly.

And I wasn't comparing anything to the toolbar. I can't see the toolbar, so that isn't what I was comparing anything to. but okay, I'll remember I can just change the view if my C key happens to stick... <grin> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Francis Daniels" <fdaniels@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 03, 2005 8:12 PM Subject: Re: want help with headers in Word 2000 Hi Daniel, Yup, you can do Alt C, but I found you can save your work in the header and exit the header edit area by going to change the view to normal. I found it by accident, and it's a lot easier than working with the toolbar. However, the nice thing about Windows is that there is no one way to get the job done.
