Changing the number of columns requires a section break. Presumably the page
numbering is restarting in the multi-column section. Place the insertion
point there and then go to Format Page Number and select "Continue from
previous section."

Hello, I have to insert some text in 2 columns in my document. The problem
is
it is automatically creating a section brake at the formated text and the
next page has a different section and page number. I tried to link it to
the
previous page but it doesn't work, tried to format the page number at the
"continue numbering", doesn't work even like that and I really need the
page
to be continuous in the whole document. I've worked before with columned
text
and I didn't have this kind of problem... please help me, it's driving me
mad

First, let me say that I hate Microsoft Word 2003. It seems like they
have
really made it less user friendly.
I use a lot of Section Breaks when drafting reports. Generally I have
page
1
with one header and footer, which I end with a continuous section
break,
followed by subsequent pages with no header and page number footers. I
then
will use a page section break, and start the process again with a
different
header.
Well, I now find that when I delete a continuous section break to
insert
it
elsewhere, the page section break above it is ALSO deleted, and then
impossible to put back in. This annoying fluke is the bane of my
existence.
Any help?
