Letterhead documents in MS Word

[Mike]

When using MS Word, I have no way of limited the letterhead to the first page
of a multipage letter in Office 2003. I hope you fix this in the next
version. It is sophmoric to have to send a 3 page letter with letterhead on
all three pages.

Cordially,

Michael Daly

It is possible to create a letter with a different header on the first page.
It's sophomoric (the correct spelling) to post this publicly without asking
if it can be done beforehand.

Indeed, that doesn't look very professional. Too bad you didn't know about
First Page Headers.

"Letterhead for a multi-page letter
Whether you¹re using preprinted letterhead or creating the letterhead as
part of your letter, you may run into the problem of what to do when your
letter is more than one page long. Whether you have inserted your letterhead
in the header or just allowed a deeper margin to accommodate it, you don¹t
want the letterhead or deeper margin on the second page. Users sometimes go
to extraordinary lengths to work this out, but the procedure is really quite
simple."

It would be sophomoric indeed if you had to do that, but you don't.
You need to know that Word has a "first page header" that you enable
in the File > Page Setup dialog.

See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm for full
instructions.
