Removing headers and footers from a section

I have a fairly complex document preparation system written using VBA.
I have a master document with some cover material in sections with no
headers/footers, then the body has headers and footers, with tags in
to control the insertion of files and tables.

After the expansion, the cover sections have headers and footers which
are empty apart from a horizontal line. I want to get rid of them
completely, but I am stuck - I can find these sections, and I have
tried settings the Headers(n).Exists to false, but the headers and
footers are still there.

Can anyone help ?

Thank you

G'day john.robinson@livedevices.com (John Robinson),

i'd make sure section 1 is header footerless in the master then use a
link to previous=true for each one.
