Sorry, no. The additional feature that I need is to be able to extend
the horizontal line over the margin region as well as the text
region, and put the page number (outer-justified) at the outer edge
of the margin region. The code that I attached to the previous
message does that, but suffers from the superimposed headers problem.
But I appreciate your effort!
Best wishes, Tom
