While Word 2007 comes with some sophisticated built-in header styles,

most documents do not require such complex headers. Sometimes all that is

needed is a quick way to add your name and page number to the top of each page.

Word 2007 makes it easier to add a simple header, with fewer mouse

clicks than previous versions. For example, to create a simple header for a

report, follow these steps:

1. In the ribbon, click
   
   the Insert tab.



2. Click Header
   
   under the Header & Footer Group.



3. Click Edit Header.

In the blank header area, you can add your name and page numbers. To do

so, follow these steps:

1. Press [Ctrl]R. {ad_200x200_left}
   
   



2. Type your name and press [Enter].



3. Type Page.



4. Click the Insert tab.



5. Click Page Number in the Header & Footer
   
   Group.



6. Click Current Position.



7. Click Plain Number.



8. Click the Close Header button.

You can go back at any time

and edit the header by simply double-clicking the header text on any page. When

you finish your edits, double-click outside the header area to continue working

in the rest of the document.
