This tutorial will cover the following headings: The following is the image and the labeling of the Header and Footer toolbar in Word XP 2002. A header or footer text can be entered and formatted like any other document text. The Header and Footer toolbar contains buttons to enable you switch between viewing the header and footer elements, as well as buttons to enable you insert header or footer items, such as AutoText entries, page number, number of pages, date and time, etc.

While the Header and Footer toolbar is displayed on screen, text and graphics in the main document become dimmed, and the header and footer areas are enclosed by a nonprinting dashed line, with nonprinting text above the dashed line indicating the current section and whether the area is the header or footer. As a result, if you choose the Header and Footer command while editing a document in any of Normal view, Web Layout view, or Outline view, Word will immediately switch to Print Layout view and display the Header and Footer toolbar. Of all the document views in Word, it is only in Print Layout view you can create or edit a header or footer.
