Skipping pages

[Kitty]

I created a document which is about 150 pages long. It
has a header and a footer. When I modify a header and try
do double click out of the header box, it takes me from
whatever page I am on to the page #61. For the life of me
I cannot figure out why and I couldn't find any help in
the help menu. I will appreciate any help. TX

Kitty, I suspect this scenario: you are on page 61; you activate the header
to make some changes; you edit multiple headers by either scrolling through
the doc or using the navigation buttons on the Headers and Footers toolbar;
you finish making your header edits on a different page than 61; you
double-click back into the doc and your view jumps back to page 61. This is
because Word has remembered where your cursor or selection was before
activating the headers and footers, and returns you back to that point. If
this does not describe your problem, please describe it in more detail.

Regards,
Chad

Thank you, Chad
That was precisely my problem. I did not know that Word
will actually remember were my cursor was before
activation of headers and footers.Wow! I am impressed.
Thank you for your help.
