Placing Word Doc in Text Box on new Doc

[kim1]

I am trying to create a new document in Word 2002. Due to the way the
page needs to be laid out, I have tried to put a Word Document into a
text box. I keep losing the Header. Is there anyway to place this
"Old" Word document into a text box in the "new" document and maintain
the header? The old document is a a procedure and the procedure number
and revisions are in the header.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kim

The easiest way to do this might be to display the page in Print Preview, as
large as possible while still displaying the whole page, take a screen shot
(a dedicated screen capture program such as SnagIt would allow you to select
just the page area), and then insert it into your Word document as a
picture.

Alternatively, you can create a new section for this page and insert the
page, along with a Continuous section break added to the end of the page in
the original document. This will preserve the header. For more, see
