Default Page numbers not showing on page in page layout

I am using Word 2003. When I use insert page number and tell it to center
the page numbering at the bottom of the page it does not appear. If I try
using the view header and footer command and tell it to insert page numbers
it may insert a page number but will not insert it in the center of the
footer. This is not happening all of the time so I do not know if it is a
software bug or something I'm doing. If anyone else had had this problem and
solved it please let me know. Thank you

You can center the page number in the footer using either a single Tab
character (there is a centered tab stop centered between the margins) or
Ctrl+E. If page numbers are not printing, see
