Keep the following points in mind:
1
A header or footer part differs from a page header or footer. A page
header or footer is text or pictures that appears at the top or bottom of a
page in any AppleWorks document (except communications). It appears
on every page of a document, (unless you create a title page in a word
processing document using the Section command). A header or footer part
appears on every page of a database document.
To add a page header or footer to a database document, in Browse or List
mode, choose Insert Header or Insert Footer from the Format menu. (These
commands aren’t available in Layout mode.)

To display or print summary data on separate pages, add a page break
before or after a sub-summary part. In Layout mode, choose Insert Part from
the Layout menu. In the Insert Part dialog box, select a summary part, and
then choose an option for a page break.
Copying summary data
You can copy data in summary fields when you’re in page view and when a
sub-summary, leading grand summary, or trailing grand summary exists. For
example, copy values from summary fields into a spreadsheet, and then
display a bar chart using those values.
To copy summary data, choose Browse from the Layout menu, then choose
Page View from the Window menu. Choose Copy Summaries from the Edit menu.
Open the application or document to hold the copied data, and then paste the
data (for example, select an area in the document and choose Paste from the
Edit menu).
Resizing and deleting parts
