This does not work. The table of contents remains with i,ii,iii format after
changing it in the format page number box. I even tried taking the main body
and copying it to a blank file and installing another table of contents - the
result is the same.

This began with my trying to set up the pages before the main body with i,
ii, iii numbering using separate sections. When I was unsuccessful at that, I
gave up and decided not to even give page numbers for the early pages (title
page, disclaimer, table of contents, etc.) still in a separate section. I was
able to get the first page of the first document to be page one but the table
of contents still starts with i rather than 1. I even put a footer in the
table of contents with numbers - that works but the table of contents is
still i, ii, iii.
