Mail merge - Header and footer missing when save documents as separate files

Question

I have used the Word merge feature to write a main letter and (by defining the first merge field as Heading 1) save each resulting letter as a separate document.  Yeah! The problem is that the header and footer disappear from the documents.  The master doc retains them, but the individual letters do not.

How can I produce the separate files with headers?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

See Split Merged Output to Separate Documents and, better still, Send Mailmerge Output to Individual Files in the Mailmerge Tips and Tricks thread at:
