Repeating Title Line from First Page in Header of Following Pages

[John Spencer]

What I would like to do is have a title line in a memorandum on page 1 and
have that Title line apperar in the header of all the subsequent pages.

Something like

Re: Stocks are Available


Then in the header of the following pages I would see
Stocks are Up Page 2

Whoops

That should have read Stocks are Available in the header not "Stocks are
up".

Apply a style to that title that you don't use elsewhere. In the header,
insert a StyleRef field that refers to the title's style. Follow that with
two tabs, the word "Page", and a Page field.

Then, in File > Page Setup > Layout, check the box for "Different first
page". There will be no header on page 1, and the title and page number will
appear at the left and right margins, respectively, of all following pages.

-

If it is just one title (the memo title or document title), fill out
the Title in File/Properties [Summary tab]. Pick it up in the header
by the DocProperty field, selecting the Title property.
You can also use headings of your memo to display in the header, using
the StyleRef field. For instance, if you have a paragraph Stocks are
Available (Heading 1 style) and a few pages away Stocks are Up (also a
heading 1 style) [sorry, I cldnt resist ] you can put the StyleRef
field assigned to Heading 1 in the heaedr. The moment Word detects the
next Heading 1 style it will display this in the header.

Dang, I left out on important detail. This memo is being set up as a
template. I will try your suggestion and see if this works. Thanks for the
advice.

What you might want to do is insert MacroButton NoMacro fields (see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/UsingMacroButton.htm) for titles and
headings. If the appropriate style (paragraph or character) is applied to
the MacroButton field, it will still be applied to whatever text is typed
into it, so the StyleRef fields will work perfectly. I use this technique in
some of my templates.

 

[John Spencer]

It seems to be working.

Thanks for the advice - I am now a hero to our editor even though I showed
her where I got the answer.
