Thank you.



I though that different sections could never be linked together and require always a new header/footer definition.

However two more problems remain:

The headline "backup concept" and date + page information is currently all left justified.
I want the headline to be left justified and the date+page info right justified.

How can I tell this to Word2007?

Furthermore there is a curious situation when I click on the footer of a FOLLOWING page.

As you can see on the attached snapshot the header area comes BELOW the footer area.

Whats wrong?

How can I "repair" this?

You can do this in two ways.

The method used most often is to set a right-tab at the far right margin and use a tab between the left-justified material and the right justified material. By default headers are set to have a center tab and a right-justified tab.

A second method is to use a borderless table with two columns and set the justification in the two columns as you want.

I've not seen anything like this before and suspect a corrupted document.

Make a copy of your document. Then create a new document and copy the content from the copy to the new document, one section at a time without the section breaks. You will then need to recreate the section breaks. You can copy the headers/footers from the copy to the new document. This is a lot of work and you may want to wait to see if someone else has a better idea.

Corruption certainly seems the most likely explanation in this case. For more, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm and the KB article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826864/en-us/.
