Default How to insert page numbers starting on the third page?

The TOC will display the number displayed on the page provided that number
is defined by "Format Page Number" and not achieved by means of a calculated
field.

How will this approach affect a Table of Contents or will it?

You can use section breaks and have different footers on every page if
you
like and then you can change your numbering as you see fit.

Hello,

Word only allows us to decide whether or not we want page numbers on
the
first page. What if I don't want a page number on pages 1 and 2 of the
document, and want to display page number [set to value of say 40]
starting
on third page [i.e., the third page in the document has "40" displayed
on the
bottom; the fourth page - "41" ,etc]?

Thank you for your help
