At least I think this is what I did the last few times I needed the footer and header removed. I'm at work and can't reference my home machine at this time.

Good Luck!
Thanks. That is what I have been doing - convert with mobipocket creator and then import into Calibre. Works like a charm, althoug I think I could probably format Calibre to make mobipocket creator redundant, but I'm not there yet.
