Default Page numbering starts with sec 1, but I want it to start in sec 2

Unlink the footer of the second section; then you can have different
contents for first and second section footers. Insert the page numbers
directly into the footer and then restart the numbering, using the Page
Number Format dialog box. Detailed instructions can be found in the article
at http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...rontMatter.htm.

I have a manuscript with four title pages. I created a section break for
the
body of the manuscript, and I want page numbering to start with the body
of
the manuscript in section 2. However, when I insert page numbers in
section
2, page numbers appear beginning with title pages. The only clue I have is
that the "Footer - section 2 - " also says "Same as Previous".
