Huge header: how can I reduce it?

[David Powell]

A one-page Word doc (2003*) I've been given to work with has a big table in
the main part, with what appear to be small regions of header and footer.
However, if you actually "View Header", the dotted line showing the header
boundary shows that it extends way down to below the bottom row of the table.
Yet there are no paragraph marks or anything to show why this might be.

I had a chance to edit an earlier version of this document, and found that I
couldn't insert text before or after the table without running foul of
header/footer issues. I guess this is why.

Anyway, there are two actual text lines in the header. I need to remove the
second and put it in the main body so that it's easily accessible in a mail
merge.

Any hints about how I could proceed?

Often this just means that the vertical alignment for the section has been
set to Center rather than Top.
