Hi All,

In Word 2000, I start out with a header with Page X of Y codes that
work just fine. Then suddenly in a multipage document, they start
printing "Page 1 of 1," "Page 2 of 2" etc. I think it may happen the
first time that Track Changes is used in the document. But even after
all of the changes have been accepted, the page numbering problem
exists. Even if I delete the header and recreate it, the problem
remains. I know that sometimes problems lie in the last paragraph
mark of a document - however, I have tried copying the entire body,
including the last paragraph mark into another document and it does
not cause a problem with the header in that document.

I checked the MS Knowledge Base but didn't find the answer. What is
causing the problem, how can I prevent it, and how can I fix it?

TIA,

Vivian Carroll
