Show Footer but not Header on first page only

[kungfauxn00b]

Hi, is it possible to only show the footer on the first page, without the header. Then on all subsequent pages, show both.



I've used the "Different first page" option but can't see how to only show one. I've found if I use the "Different first page" option then copy and paste the footer from page 2 into page 1, it shows the correct page numbers etc. but I have a static value that needs to be updated manually and if I use this workaround, it needs modifying in 2 places.

Any ideas?

I'm using MS Word 2013

Well, then, it needs to be updated in two places. That is how headers and footers work.

Does this static value appear anywhere in the body of your document? If so, you would be able to use a StyleRef Field to display that information in your headers. When changed in the body of the document, it will automatically change in the headers.

Thanks mate, I'll have a look at this option!
