hi, im doing a thesis and i need to keep everything in the same word
document
but want the page numbering to begin on page 4 but to say that its page 1.

other words, i dont want a header on the cover page or the title page,
etc. i
tried putting in the code you have above, but cant manage to hide the
code,
am i supposed to be typing it straight into the header field?
thanks for your help,
