This is due to the fact that each section can have its own header attached. As I edit the document, my headers disappear or change. I have a bunch of continuous section breaks in my document, each seems to have its own heading. (Use the paragraph symbol on the Home tab to show them, if you have difficulty). As advised in the link, in addition to that macro, you need add the GetFolder function from post1 in the thread: Code: Function GetFolder () As String Dim oFolder As Object GetFolder '' Set oFolder CreateObject ('Shell.Application. Once you are satisfied that the headers (or footers) are fixed, you can delete each of the new page returns. As advised in the link, you should add the macro to a document with your new header. Once you fix the headers, you can test them by typing in a letter or number in one header and scrolling through the pages to make sure it shows up on all the pages. Do this for each section that you have given its own page (Ugh!). Click it to link the current header to the previous header.

To insert a new header or footer without altering the one youve already inserted, navigate to the bottom of the last page before your new header or footer, and from the Layout tab (or the Page Layout tab) select Breaks, Next Page as pictured. The design tab (of the ribbon) should have the focus and you should see a navigation pane with a “link to previous” option. As a default in Word, all subsequent headers and footers link to the previous pages header and footer. Double click on the header to go into the edit header/footer mode. Once each section is on its own page, we can edit the header (or footer) for that section. After each section break we will need to insert a new page (Ctrl-Enter for shortcut). We need to link each header from each section back to the original header (or footer).
