Lay out issue: I don't want a header on page one, but i do want a footer.

When working in footers/headers excel has the option to click "first page divergent" (I'm not sure if this is how its formulated in the english version), awesome!

However i came to find out if i am working in my header and i click this, it automatically does the same for my footer.
This kind of bugs me, since i want my footer on page 1, but not my header.

Any confirmation that this is simply not possible, or an explanation on how this is actually possible would be hugely appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

In English the option is "Different first page."

The only way to do this is to duplicate the footer. Set up the same footer for "Footer" and "First Page Footer".

I feel really stupid right now, dind't really get the thing you send the screen of but i could simply just add a new footer on the first page, and not add a header (by using the ribbon).

Thanks a lot for this, for some reason my brain couldn't get around it !
