Subject:FW: HELP - Word97 footer problem From:Christine Edel <CEdel -at- HUGHESSUPPLY -dot- COM> Date:Fri, 9 Oct 1998 11:00:06 -0400
There is a box next to the highlighting feature in the upper right hand
corner of Word. It is a box with cross bars in it. Click on it, and
make sure that no lines are selected (make sure you are in your footer
when you do this).
This should clear up your problem.
