I need to change part of my footer on 1 page. When I change it, it changes it
thru the intire document. How do you do it on one page?
 
Enable the "Different first page" option in the Page Setup dialog box. Then
you have a separate first page footer (and a separate first page header,
too).

That was my first reaction, too, Stefan, until I reread the message and saw
it said "1 page" and not "page 1." If the single page *is* page 1, then of
course this method will work.

You are correct. The page I need to change is number 42. I need to change a
single page and not the first page. Thanks
 
Will the page always be page 42? If so, you can use an IF field such as { IF
{ PAGE } = 42 "" "Footer you want on all the other pages" } Note that you
can paste anything in between that last pair of quotes.

If the page number is variable, though, you'll need to insert at least one
section break. You could section the page off on its own, or you can insert
just the break before it and format its section as "Different first page,"
leaving the First Page Footer empty.
