Default Page numbers, Section Numbering, and the TOC

Suzanne,

Thank you, I see the solution to each problem.

1. To delink to the next session you must be clicked on the section you want
to delink. Otherwise upon choosing section break ( next page ) will make the
following page, NOT page one of the new section.

2. Make the title page and the TOC section one and leave unnumbered.

3. As in (1.) above, you must ensure each section is delinked from the one
above. If you have 17 sections you must delink 16 times (you cannot delink
the first section)
Also, once formatting the page number styles, you can then insert the new
page numbers from the header footer tab (W2007)

Thank you,

And note that your title page *is* page i, and your intro thus begins on
page iii.

...
I want my table of contents to read

Table of Contents:
Intro i
Heading1 1
Heading2 3

And there are three problems:
1. When making a new section via section break, the section 2 contents
begin
on the next page, but the page numbering begins on the page of the section
break.

2. I cannot make the intro page 'i' as the title page and the table of
contents take up two pages and I can't start page numbering at -2.

3. When I go to section two and change the page numbers to restart in this
section it resets the page number codes for section one even after
de-linking
the sections.

This is a fairly common numbering scheme and it is frustrating it is so
hard
to accomplish!!

Thank for your help!
