Default Page numbering for individual sections

Thanks, macropd, but I already did that and it did not work.

Hi Writer0101,

Try:
.. Press Ctrl-F9 to create a pair of field braces (ie '{}')
.. Type 'SECTIONPAGES \* Roman' between the field braces so that you end up with '{SECTIONPAGES \* Roman}'
.. Select the field and press F9 to update it.

I still can't get the numbering to work, even though I clearly have the
following:
Section 1--no numbering; that part is okay.
Section 2--roman. Previous/Next Section is turned off. The first page in
section 1 is ii and I cannot get it to read as "i" no matter how many times I
(a) make sure I have sections, (2) select page number start at 1 (3) use
SECTIONPAGES instead of PAGE, (4) Use Field Codes instead, etc.

HELP! Please.

Hi Gill,

Use a SECTIONPAGES field instead of the usual NUMPAGES field.

Hi,

I hv e a document with a number of sections in it but each section requires
its own 'page of pages' numbering starting at page 1 and ending in the last
page number for that section only.

Can someone help me find a way around the 'pages' number being the total
number of pages in the document?

Im using office 2007 and saving in 2003 compatability.


kind regards
