Having trouble with "Same as Previous" button for formatting headers

[Roy Patience]

I use the headers/footers feature of Word 2011 for Mac so infrequently that I have forgotten where the "Same as Previous" button is on the Header and Footer formatting ribbon. I hovered my cursor over each button and I could not find the Same as Previous button. Is there a way to add it to the ribbon?

Thanks so much for any help anyone can offer.

Sincerely,

Roy Patience

In some versions, the button is called Link to Previous instead of Same as Previous. However, I have never used MacWord, only WinWord.

Thanks for the help. I discovered that I also had to click on the Headers and Footers button on the ribbon also.

Thanks.

I'm glad you got it sorted.
