Numbering and Header for Story
I am using Word 2003 with an XP operating system
I am preparing a short story for publication. There is a title page that does not have a number. Then there is a first page that has a number but the number is not shown. The last name and page number is suppose to start on the second page. If I try to insert a page break I get a blank page. What’s worse there is a same as previous command that people refer to but do no show. They will show a page number menu and say click on same as previous but its not on the screen. I can find same as previous as part of a header but I can't click on it. Can anyone help. |

Numbering and Header for Story
You need a section break between the title page and the rest of the story.
Then you need "Different first page" enabled for the second section. You'll leave the First Page Header/Footer blank and put your name and page number in the Header/Footer. You can either unlink Section 1 from Section 2 (by turning off Link to Previous) in order to leave the Header/Footer for the title page empty as well, or you can enable "Different first page" for Section 1, in which case it will have the same empty First Page Header/Footer as in Section 2. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm and http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm for plenty of pictures. -- Suzanne S.
