You can add text to headers and footers in your document by using the Headers property and Footers property of the Section. Each section of a document contains three headers and footers:

Document-level customizations

To use the following code examples, run them from the ThisDocument class in your project.

To add text to footers in the document

  1. The following code example sets the font of the text to be inserted into the primary footer of each section of the document, and then inserts text into the footer.

    For Each section As Word.Section In Me.Sections
    Dim footerRange As Word.Range = section.Footers(Word.WdHeaderFooterIndex.wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range
    footerRange.Font.ColorIndex = Word.WdColorIndex.wdDarkRed
    footerRange.Font.Size = 20
    footerRange.Text = "Confidential"
Next

    foreach (Word.Section wordSection in this.Sections)
{
    Word.Range footerRange = wordSection.Footers[Word.WdHeaderFooterIndex.wdHeaderFooterPrimary].Range;
    footerRange.Font.ColorIndex = Word.WdColorIndex.wdDarkRed;
    footerRange.Font.Size = 20;
    footerRange.Text = "Confidential";
}

To add text to headers in the document

  1. The following code example adds a field to show the page number in each header in the document, and then sets the paragraph alignment so that the text aligns to the right of the header.

    For Each section As Word.Section In Me.Sections
    Dim headerRange As Word.Range = section.Headers(Word.WdHeaderFooterIndex.wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range
    headerRange.Fields.Add(headerRange, Word.WdFieldType.wdFieldPage)
    headerRange.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphRight
Next

    foreach (Word.Section section in this.Sections)
{
    Word.Range headerRange = section.Headers[Word.WdHeaderFooterIndex.wdHeaderFooterPrimary].Range;
    headerRange.Fields.Add(headerRange, Word.WdFieldType.wdFieldPage);
    headerRange.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphRight;
}

To add text to footers in a document

  1. The following code example sets the font of the text to be inserted into the primary footer of each section of the document, and then inserts text into the footer. This code example uses the active document.

    For Each section As Word.Section In Me.Application.ActiveDocument.Sections
    Dim footerRange As Word.Range = section.Footers(Word.WdHeaderFooterIndex.wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range
    footerRange.Font.ColorIndex = Word.WdColorIndex.wdDarkRed
    footerRange.Font.Size = 20
    footerRange.Text = "Confidential"
Next

    foreach (Word.Section wordSection in this.Application.ActiveDocument.Sections)
{
    Word.Range footerRange = wordSection.Footers[Word.WdHeaderFooterIndex.wdHeaderFooterPrimary].Range;
    footerRange.Font.ColorIndex = Word.WdColorIndex.wdDarkRed;
    footerRange.Font.Size = 20;
    footerRange.Text = "Confidential";
}
