Link to previous button disabled

[WG, LI]

Hi all,

I'm putting together a new format. I have different first page and different
odd and even headers and footers. I created a template and am using it to
create a new test document.

However, as I'm working with my headers and footers, the "Link to Previous"
button is disabled (grayed out) and I can't select it. I've never seen this
before - can anyone tell my why this is happening and how I can enable the
button again? I don't want to have to copy and paste the same info into the
headers and footers.

Any advice is welcome.

Do you have more than one section? This button won't be enabled unless you
do. You can't link between First Page Header and Odd Page Header and Even
Page Header; they're all separate. The Link button there only links the
First Page Header in Section 1 to the First Page Header in Section 2 and so
on.

(Red-faced) Sorry, I should have thought of this before I huffed and puffed.
Thanks for the reminder.

It's an issue it's easy to get confused about if you don't do this sort of
layout often.
