Re: How to show header in Draft View (Word2007)

In the UI of Word 2003 and earlier, the command is View | Header and Footer
to open and the Close button on the Header and Footer toolbar to close. In
recent versions, this actually throws you temporarily into Print Layout view
rather than show a pane for the header/footer (like the footnote pane).
According to the Word Command Reference, the corresponding command to open
the header in Word 2007 is Insert | Header & Footer (since people always
looked for it on the Insert menu anyway when they were first creating a
header and there was nothing yet to "view").

When I shift from Print View to Draft View in a document the headers
doesn't show. I can make a header pane appear using:

Sub Test()
ActiveDocument.Sections(1).Headers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range.Select
End Sub

This opens a pane at the bottom of the view with the header contents.
This pane has an "X" to close it in the top right corner.

Is there a UI command somewhere that will toggle the header pane open and
closed?

Thanks.
