This time, bad news and good news. In preparing for the final printable copy, I went to Tools/Watermark... to remove the same by selecting "No Watermark". This worked and promptly removed ALL entries in all Footers over all Sections. Even the Footer Rulers are deleted. Not a happy Vegemite. Why are Footers connected to Watermarks? Considering that I have a detailed setup for both, there must be some explanation. But there is more!! With page 1 in view, then after selecting "Edit/Select/Select All Document", I found that the Footers for Odd pages were not completed but those for Even pages still retained at least most of the expected content. And now, I discovered "Tools/Automatic Content/Update/All Stale Content. Bingo. All Footers restored. The possibilities with NWP never cease to amaze me. ------------------------ Regards from brianF =============== On 06/11/2011, at 12:41 PM, Brian Ferguson wrote: > Thanks Bob, the answer to your question is NO, I did not try that. > > Now I went back to an old copy where the only available Footer change seemed to be on Page 1.
