The document system where I work is set up in sections. For example, work
instructions under Contingency Plans consist of 9 different work
instructions. The work instructions make up a total of 14 pages. Some
instructions are 2 pages long, some 3 pages, etc. My new document is just 1
page. My new document is in Section 11. When I try to add the number of
pages (page 1 of 5) it automatically goes to page 1 of 14. I need it to say
page 1 of 1.

I would gladly help you with the page numbers but I do not understand exactly
what your problem is. Could you please explain more clearly:
Do you have a document with only 1 page which should be page no. 14 of 14
or???

Thank you soooooooooo much Lene, I have been racking my brain all morning. I
followed your instruction to a "T" and got it straightened out. Thank you
again.
Now can you help me with page numbers. I added a new document which is
section #11. There is a total of 14 pages but my document is only 1 page.
When I try to add the page numbers it automatically goes to 1 of 14.

This happens because the new header is linked to the previous header:
Go to the new section in your document. In Print Layout view, double-click
the header. Does a small text saying €śSame as previous€ť appear above the
header? If this is the case, turn it off by clicking the €śLink to previous€ť
icon in the €śHeader and Footer€ť toolbar (no. 5 command from the right). Now
you should be able to type a header without affecting the header in the
previous section.
If you need section-specific footers too, you must also turn off €śSame as
previous€ť in the footer.

How do I make a new Section and add a new Header to it? When I insert a
section then try to add the Header it changes the Header on the section above
the one I'm trying to create.
