I have created a 2 page chart (in another program) which I need to insert
into the final printed document (which I created in Word 2007). Therefore, I
need the page numbers, which I have in the upper righthand corner, to skip 2
pages. Example: 65,66,69,70,etc. I have tried to insert 2 blank pages as
"spacers", but Word tries to put my footnotes on the 2 blank pages. Any
ideas? Word Support seems stumped.

Place a Next Page section break (Page Layout Breaks Next Page) at the
point where the numbering needs to change. Then, with the cursor after the
section break (that is, on the page that is now 67 and should be 69), click
Insert Page Number Format Page Number and set the starting page of the
section to 69.

Be careful -- any editing in the earlier part of the document might change
the pagination so that page should no longer be numbered 69, but having
forced it this way it won't change automatically. You'll have to check the
situation and adjust the setting manually if needed.

Thanks for your help. 2 problems show up. 1: Word 2007 tries to continue a
footnote that begins on p.66 on the blank page after p.66. 2: When I change
page numbers, the numbers start counting backwards.

There should not be any blank page between 66 and (now) 69. If there are any
blank pages, remove them (click the ¶ button and remove any empty paragraph
marks).

For the footnote overflow, see
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...OnDiffPage.htm.

I have no idea what could cause the reversing page numbers. If you wanted to
do it deliberately, it's fairly difficult to achieve.

Thanks. Part of the problem is a paragraph mark in the middle of the
footnote. Yet neither the delete nor the backspace keys will eliminate it.
Any ideas?

I found a way to make it work: I inserted 2 blank pages to act as "spacers".
I don't why it workerd this time because I tried to do this before & failed.
