Need Help with MS Word Issues on Headers & Footers

Subject: Need Help with MS Word Issues on Headers & Footers

 


Hello troops! 


Problem with header/footer. I have created a MS Word template that has both a header and a footer that should appear on page 1 only. My problem is that when I have to go on to page 2, I have to manually delete both the Page 2 header and footer. Any help? 


When I was learning how to do the headers and footers, it said that to have the header and footer appear only on page 1, you should - when going onto to a second page, do a section break when starting page 2; then you can use the header/footer menu feature "link to previouis" (or rather, you actually want to "unlink" the page 2 header from the page 2 header (and likewise for the footer). But when I do this, I still have to go into the header (and then the footer), highlight the text, and delete it.  I'm trying to figure it out so I can just type the document and not have to worry about deleting the page 2 header, etc.


Thanks much.


Dave

word headers
Subject: word headers

Help!!! Will someone please tell me how to put headers on second and succeeding pages WITHOUT the header going to the first page as well? I can do it with much trial and error, but always the first time it wants to go on the first page and I have to "play" with it to make it stop. As anyone of you know, that is slowing me down quite a bit. Can anyone tell me exactly how to do this? Thanks very much!!

she was looking for the plural form of decubitus, saying she got stumped by it.  I responded very simply to that.  I did not feel I needed to correct her use of "pleural" as was not her question and just quickly wanted to help her, and checked my medical references to do so.  I pointed out that there are no plural form for decubitus.  This is all correct.  What is your problem.  I was trying to help an MT with correct and verfified medical transcription help, now I know why I stay away from any message boards, always someone who wants a fight.  Whatever.

Word Help for Pex - sorry not yet, but ....
Subject: Word Help for Pex - sorry not yet, but ....

Hi, CC ...


I'm sorry that I don't have an answer for you regarding "pex", but I have just contacted a GI doctor friend of mine to ask him if he is familiar with the word.  You said that it was used in a sentence with the phrase: "the esophagus was pexed", so I thought that maybe, since he does EGDs, he might be familiar with that word. 


Once thing I ask ... please ... when you find your answer - and you will - please post it on the board so that we who are just learning surgcal dictation can add it to our repetoire of weird words.  PLEASE?  Thanks, and good luck.  I hope I have an answer for you later this evening, or that someone else does.   Judy H.
