With report sectioning, Header and Trailer pages are identical to Body pages. In effect, this means that the Header, Trailer, and Body are three sections of a report. The names of the sections are exposed under the Paper Design node in the Object Navigator as Header Section, Main Section, and Trailer Section. You can use the margin and body of the Header and Trailer sections to create a Header and Trailer “page” as in earlier releases.
In the Paper Layout view, click the Confine Off button and the Flex On button in the toolbar.
Click the repeating frame for the page, then drag and resize the frame to allow enough room to type the header or footer text. Tip: In the Object Navigator, under the Paper Layout node, expand the Body node to select the repeating frame by name.
Create a boilerplate text object for the header or footer text.
