continuous page numbering through section breaks

The page numbering in footer returns to 1 after every section break in my
long document. I've repeatedly "fixed" this by clicking the "Continue from
previous section" button in the Page Number Format dialog box for each
section and saved the document. But when I open the document again, each
section starts back at page 1. I'm using Word 2007, odd and even page headers
and footers. What am I missing? Thanks.
I had this issue in Word 2013. I was making changes to a document with Track Changes on when I set up the sections and used the macro included in this post to fill in the numbers. The macro worked fine but when I save it and reopened it, each section was set back to beginning with page 0. Turns out I needed to accept all the formatting changes to create the sections/headers and footers. THEN the page numbering would stick when saved. Just another nuance!
