Thanks Justin, the tip about Getting to the design tab really helps. I see that you can first insert a blank header or footer, then from that design tab you can add field codes like page numbers and other things into your headers and footers, as well as other things like different first page headers, alignment marks etc.

Do you know of any other good general information sources for jaws and word/excel 2010? Besides this list I mean.

Try alt n h then hit enter.  You can type what you want in your header.
Then you can arrow down to your footer.  The command to get to footer from
the document is alt n then o.  when y ou are in either one of these areas,
alt j will take you to the design tab, then just tab through and use your
ribbon.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and Word2010 headers and footers

I am using jaws 12 and 13 with word 2010 and am trying to work with the
headers and footers functions without much luck. I have some excellent
tutorials from talking-computers.org.uk, but Jaws is acting totally flakey
on my installation, whereas it works flawlessly in the tutorials. Anyone
having similar problems with jaws in word2010? Most everything else seems to work well in word2010 with jaws with this exception. I'm hoping there's some
setting or some fix for the headers and footers functionality.
