Restart page numbering in chapter
I have a document with several chapters, each seperated by section breaks.
The page numbering starts over in all chapters but one. the numbering is 2-1, 2-2, 3-1, etc. The chapter that won't restart is Chapter 1, which follows some frontmatter. The frontmatter page numbers are numbered correctly (i, ii, iii, etc). The first page of Chapter 1 begins with 2-1 instead of 1-1. I have section breaks before and after the chapter. All of the other chapters restart the numbering correctly except this one. I've opened the footer in Chapter 1 that contains the page number and changed the page number setting to "start at 1", but this doesn't help. "Link to previous" is not selected. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Randy |

Restart page numbering in chapter
If the style used for the chapter numbering is part of an outline-numbered
list, make sure you don't have any lower-level heads preceding "Chapter 1." Also check to make sure that you don't have any empty paragraphs or page breaks before "Chapter 1" formatted with the heading style it uses. -- Suzanne S.

Restart page numbering in chapter
The Chapter 1 title uses "Heading 1" style, and is preceded by a section
titled "References and Drawings" which uses the "Title Centered" style. There is a page number and section break (next page) between them, but deleting either or both didn't help. I didn't see any empty paragraphs between the sections. In the Page Number Format dialogue box, the "chapter starts with style" is Heading 1. I forgot to mention I'm using Word 2003. "Suzanne S.

Restart page numbering in chapter
There is also a page break and section break (next page) between Chapter 1 & 2.

If you'd like to send me a portion of the problem doc, I'll take a look.

Restart page numbering in chapter
I wish I could send the document, but it's proprietary to my company and I
can't. I'm having the same problem with Appendix B. The page numbers in Appendix A are fine (A-1, A-2, etc), but the page numbers in Appendix B start at A-1. I've followed Shana Kelly's suggestion to change the Chapter Starts with Style box to choose Heading 6. "Suzanne S.

Restart page numbering in chapter
Did you include Heading 6 as part of your outline numbering scheme?
