Default need help with page numbering.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm. Note that
page numbering should be set to "Continue from previous section" for every
section after the one that begins with page 1.

Someone help me!!!!

I'm formatting a book in word. It has a title page, which shouldn't have a
page number or a header or footer. Then it has pages of front matter
(acknowledgments, preface, table of content etc) that I want to number in
roman numerals at the bottom centre. Then Chapter 1 begins and is numbered
book style with the author and page number on the left page and the book
title and page number on the right page. I need the page numbering to

start
1,2,3 etc from the beginning of chapter 1 through to the end.
The real diffficulty is that the footnote reference numbers have to start
afresh from 1 at the beginning of each chapter so each chapter is a new
section break.

I've racked my brains but am stuck. Any advice would be greatly greatly
recieved.

Many thanks guys
