How to Add a Header in Microsoft Word

To add a header in Microsoft Word, follow these steps:

1. Open a new or existing Word document. 2. Click on the "Insert" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen. 3. Click on the "Header" button in the "Header & Footer" section. 4. From the drop-down menu, select the type of header you want to add, such as "Blank," "Edit Header," or one of the built-in options. 5. Type the text you want to appear in the header, such as your name or the document title. 6. If desired, format the header text by changing the font, size, color, or alignment using the options in the "Font" or "Paragraph" sections of the ribbon. 7. To return to the body of the document, click on the "Close Header and Footer" button in the "Close" section of the "Design" tab.

Alternatively, you can also double-click on the top margin of the page to enter the header editing mode, and then follow the same steps as above to add and format your header text.
