If the numbers were inserted using Insert | Page Numbers, they can be tricky
to delete safely. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...lyIndented.htm for instructions. -- Suzanne S.

How can I eliminate page numbering in an MS Word document?
Which version of Word?
If prior to 2007, go to ViewHeader & Footer, then delete the page number code as well as any other unwanted content. If the doc uses several pg number schemes in different sections the content will have to be deleted from each Footer.

How can I eliminate page numbering in an MS Word document?
I am new to this version of Wrod. I hit "Insert" for page # and picked a
style. The page # went into the document, but I could not get back to the main text to keep writing the text of the document. I was stuck in the footer. Can someone tell me what I should do?

How can I eliminate page numbering in an MS Word document?
I'd like to start numbering with page 2 on the actual page 5, no numbers
before that. Is Word 2007 capable of this feat? Jon "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Select the PAGE field and delete it. -- Suzanne S.

Certainly. See

Sorry, the instructions on that page are a bit of a confusing nightmare. I
don't want *any* numbers on the front matter, not Roman numerals. Jon "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Certainly.

Good point.
Having text boundaries displayed in Word makes it easier to see such page number frames. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
