Display and Print problems using Office 2003 in Windows XP

[Marv]

Hi,

When a Word doc that has a header and footer and the Print Preview button is
pressed only the body text of the document is displayed. The header and
footer are not visible. When the doc is printed only the body text is
printed.

This problem started recently. Is has been working for the last 2 years.

No new programs have been added to the Computer.

Thanks for your help.

If the header and footer contain background images and/or
floating (not inline with text) text boxes, then in Word 2003 or
earlier click on Tools | Options | Print tab | check the boxes
for "Drawing objects" and "Background colors and images" | OK.
