Default Page Numbering in Word 2007

I've got a 100+ page document that was put together from 9 smaller documents.
My problem is that the page numbers are not being displayed correctly. With
thumbnails turned on my document starts at page 2 in section 1 ( a two page
section). It restarts at 1 then goes to 12 in section 2. It then starts at 15
for section 3 and repeats the pattern until the end of the document. Not sure
how to fix this. My question is how do I fix the page numbering?

In the first section, double-click in the header area to open it, which also
displays the Header & Footer Tools ribbon. On that ribbon, click the Page Number
button and choose Format Page Numbers from the menu.

In the bottom part of the dialog, set the Start At box to 1 and click OK.

In the Header & Footer Tools ribbon, click the Next Section button to get to the
section 2 header. Again click Page Number Format Page Numbers. This time,
click the "Continue from previous section" option and click OK. Repeat this step
until the last section has been adjusted.
