I have lost the item "Page Numbers" in the Insert menu.
The words are still there but in Faint text.
How can I recover this feature.

Hello again Stefan,
Looks like I was a bit hasty.
I have to renew the "a" switch each time I open Word.
What's the answer to this?

Read more in the article, about deleting registry keys, and see if
that helps instead.

That seems to have cured it.
I always try to avoid altering the registry if possible.
Thanks.

You don't want to recover this "feature." I go so far as to take it off the
menus in my Word setup. Instead, insert page numbers through the
header/footer view and that toolbar. Take a look at
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Number...eNumbering.htm. For even more,
see http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Page_Numbering.htm.
