On the toolbar, click on "View" and choose header footer.

select all and copy your logo.
You only need to do this if it is a graphic logo

Open a new Word document.

Drag down from VIEW to Header and Footer.
Header and footer windows will open in your document.

Put your cursor in the header window and select Paste
(either control, option or command V depending on your OS.)

Close the window (click the tab that says CLOSE.)

Examine your logo. If it is too large, throw away your document and go back into your graphic program and shrink the size until it is small enough. Start over with a new document.

----
However, if your header is NOT a graphic logo, if it is just text, you don't need to worry about pasting at all. Do this...

Open a new Word document.
Open your Standard and Formatting toolbars. (You do this by dragging down from View to TOOLBARS and select the Standard and Formatting toolbars. You don't use them yet, but you will in a moment.)

Drag down from VIEW to Header and Footer.
Header and footer windows will open in your document.
Type your header in the header window.
Use the tools on your autotext menu bar. If you don't know what the graphic symbols are, you can turn on your windows help screen so that the program will tell you what each symbol is as you mouse over it. Here are a few of the symbols on the autotext menu bar:

# - insert page number

+
+ - insert number of pages

7 - insert date

(clock)- insert time

(These particular symbols are more useful for footers.)

Now...to format your header text...

While the header window is open, highlight the header text. (Everything that is highlighted will be affected by your formatting selections. if you don't highlight, no changes will show up.)

Look at the Formatting toolbar (it's the one that has HEADER and the font listed.

Drag down the formatting box that lists the font until you select the font you want the header to be.

Drag down the number until the font size is the size you want.
(Both of these features can be typed instead of dragged.)

To make it BOLD Italics or Underlined, select those features (or you can use the command/control keys if you know them.)

To set left justified, centered, right justified, left and right justified, make those selections (It's the next set of choices on the menubar, the graphic of the underlines.)

Skip over the numbering section since that doesn't really apply to a header.

Border, highlight color and font color are the last set of choices you can manipulate.

When you have formatted the text to your satisfaction, CLOSE the header, and then look at it. If you're not satisfied, go bach and make the necessary changes. Maybe even print it out to make sure it is exactly what you want. IF it IS what you want, save the blank page as "stationary."

If you save as stationary, forever after (or at least until you reset the document to a regular document) when you open that document, it will open a clean new untitled document with the header already in it.

Remember if you save it as stationary, you want to name it something that you will remember. It can be anything you want. Mylogo.doc; Mybusinessloco.doc; [businessname] stationary

Anyway, that about covers it.

Oh, back to your original question...

Now that you have saved your BLANK stationary page,
go back to your document you already saved, that original letter you wanted to send.

Open original letter.
Select All.
Copy.

Now...open a new stationary. (Watch a new document pop up)

Paste.

Format as needed.

Save as (something).doc

Voila.

On the tool bar of a Word Document, click on Vew and then click on Headers & Footers. Copy and paste what you need to.

Wouldn't it have been easier to create your letterhead before your letter? Just make sure your top margin is at 0.5 and place it at the top. Save that as "letterhead," and you'll always have that available.

have you ever easily tried formating your letter once you pasted it interior the e-mail container on yahoo? If no longer it rather is beneficial to try this. I even have despatched distinctive emails like that and that all of them grew to become out high quality.
