Word for the Macintosh Version 6.x

You need to perform a Custom or Complete installation of Word and choose to install the Macro Templates. Once the Macro Templates are installed, use the following steps to copy the macro from the Word 6.x Macros template to the Normal template:

1. On the Tools menu, click Macro.
2. Click Organizer.
3. Click Close File (either one).
4. Click Open File.
5. Select the Macros folder located under the Microsoft Word 6 folder.
6. Select Word 6.x Macros and click Open.
7. In the Word 6.x Macros box, select NormalViewHeaderFooter.
8. Click Copy.
9. Click Close.

How to Use the Macro

1. On the View menu, click Normal.
2. On the Tools menu, click Macro.
   
   If you are using Word for Windows 6.x, Word for Windows NT 6.x, or Word for Windows 95, select Word2ViewHeaderFooter.
   
   If you are using Word for the Macintosh 6.x, select NormalViewHeaderFooter.
3. Click Run.

The command that allows this functionality is NormalViewHeaderArea. By itself, the NormalViewHeaderArea command displays the header area in a split screen. Because the dialog box prompt is not displayed, as in Word 2.x, you only have the option to choose header; however, you can scroll down to the footer.

How to Use the NormalViewHeaderArea Command

1. On the Tools menu, click Macro.
2. In the Macros Available In box, select Word Commands.
3. Under Macro Name, select or type NormalViewHeaderArea.
4. Click Run.
