Footer disappearing

[tmw]

Hi,

I am on a Mac OS 10.3, and just upgraded to Word 2004. I received a
file from someone else and when I went to enter a footer, I went to
View>Header and Footer, but when I switched to footer, it wasn't there:
I mean the whole pane, although the header showed. I am in Page
Layout. So I took the whole thing and pasted it into a new document.
It brought the problem with it. So I started pasting the document
piecemeal into the new document and this seemed to work, until I got to
a certain point in the document (not the end) and then the footer I had
established disappeared. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
TMWDNC

Section Break at that point? If yes, fiddle with the section options,
choosing same as previous or whatever is close to that in your version.
