In some versions, the button is called Same as Previous. It will be grayed out if (a) you are in section 1 or (b) your document has only one section. -- Suzanne S.

"rkbristol" wrote in message news Suzanne - thanks but I'm still having a problem. The heading/footer toolbar doesn't have an icon for "link to previous". I opened the toolbar customization and found the "link to previous" command button and was able to add it to my main menu bar but couldn't add it to the header/footer toolbar. In my main menu bar it is inactive and "grayed out". I just can't seem to get to it. I appreciate your responses and could really use some more help. Thanks, Robert "Suzanne S.

"rkbristol" wrote in message ... I've managed to get the section break to work with subsequent pages now properly numbered starting with page 3. However, I have one "rogue" page that is oddly numbered. The actual page 2 of the document has a "4" in the header. No page number should appear on page 1 and 2 (they are in section 1). As I said, the numbering now starts properly on page 3 (section 2) and is labeled as page 1. I don't know why "4" appears on page 2 and when I try to delete it, all of the numbering is removed from section 2 as well. ?? R "rkbristol" wrote: Please help, I need to turn this paper in. I have a 70 page paper and I want page 3 to be labeled ats page 1. I placed a "next page" section break at the beginning of page 3 and then used insert, page numbers. I selected Header, alignment right, then clicked on format, page numbering, start at and choose 1. After clicking ok the document shows the documents actual page 2 as page 8, actual page 5 as page 4 and then continues in sequence. I don't want actual pages 1-3 to have any numbering. I want page 3 to start numbering as page 1 and then go sequentially. I'm not sure what I've done wrong. Thanks, R |
