Trying to create a section break on a page...so that I can change the footer.
Every time put in section break (next page) ...thinking it will signal the
start of a new section so that I can change the footer...it won't work.
Followed all the steps and it's not doing it. Need help asap! Thanks.

Have you unlinked the footer in the new section from the previous one? See
