Unfortunately, users can then touch the text box easily in a mouse action, and move it to another position. Of course you can insert the text box also into the document body to have that effect. Setup the property for "Text Wrapping" = Square, so that text cannot overlap the box. I've used the following approach with some success:Ĭreate a text box in the first page header which is sufficiently big to occupy the space needed. Using a section break is not possible due to the fact that it moves while the user inserts text. So on the first page the right margin should be 6 cm, while on all following pages it should be 2,5 cm. a list of partner names or business information. In my practice, I find often letterheads with graphical elements in a right margin of the first page up to a certain heigth, e.g. Letterhead layouts and Word can be really difficult and tricky if you need other values only on the first page.

MICROSOFT WORD DIFFERENT MARGINS ON FIRST PAGE MANUAL
As such, if this is a possibility, code will need to be written to detect the Manual Page Break and delete it after the Next Page Section Break has been inserted. However, if the documents contain a Manual Page Break between pages one and two, inserting the Next Page Section Break will create a blank second page.

If the documents you are reformatting via the macro have automatic page breaks, inserting the Next Page Section Break at the end of the first page will cause Word to delete its Automatic Page Break (using the Next Page Section Break to keep the pages separate) and any margin changes you make to the first page will not carry over to the following pages. Automatic page breaks get created when text no longer fits on a page and Word automatically generates a new page. Word has two different types of page breaks: Automatic and Manual. One way it can be created is like this: Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdSectionBreakNextPage A Next Page Section Break, which has the properties of both a section break and a page break, will allow one set of margins for the first page and another set of margins for all pages following it. A Continuous Section Break is used to allow multiple sets of margins within the same page.
