Script language in headers/footers

I want to insert script language from a document assembly program into a
header/footer so that it appears on the second and subsequent pages.

I have tried this and it doesn't work. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Why would you want script code in a header? Do you mean that you want your
script to insert text into the header/footer on the 2nd and subsequent
pages? Then you need to insert a next page section break at the end of the
first page anda then add the header/footer to the 2nd section.

Yes, I want the script to insert text into the header/footer if the document
runs more than one page. I inserted a next page section break, but the
script language inserted into the second page header does not insert the
text, just the script language.

Any suggestions, I will listen.

No! You do _not_ want a section break for this. Word has a built-in
first-page header/footer setting so that you can insert text into the
header/footer and (if the section is set for different first page, that info
will not appear on the first page).

Oops, right you are. That would be a better method.
