Default How can you make page numbering start page 1 on actual page 5?

With the insertion point in the second section, use Insert | Header & Footer
| Page Number | Format Page Numbers... to choose "Start at 1."

I am preparing a print ready book which has a cover page and three
additional
pages before page numbering should begin at page 1. I have inserted a
section
break, but it still starts at page 5 instead of 1 is counting what should
be
the non-numbered paging even though the page number is not viewable. How
can
I make the page numbers begin printing at page 1 on actual page 5?
I am using Word 2007. Thank you
