first and second page number are the same. Why?
I am inserting page numbers for several chapters. chapter one comes out
fine. however, when i try to paginate chapter 2 (starting with page#55) the first and second page of the chapter each have "55" as the page number. I can't get consecutive numbers. Any ideas? |

To clarify, are you setting starting numbers for specific sections (or
documents?), or are you using the "Continue from previous section" setting? -- Suzanne S.

first and second page number are the same. Why?
I am setting starting numbers for specific documents. . . for instance my
chap. 1 is one complete document. chapter 2 is another separate document. when I choose insert page number and set up my formatting options (start at "55"), the first page starts at 55 but the next page shows "55" as well.

Is there a section break between the first two pages?

There is a section break b/t the two pages (header 1 is section 1 and header
2 is section 2 -- as is the rest of the document). Since I was unsure how to delete these section breaks, I tried inserting a different page number for the first page and started a new series of page numbers for the next section and that seemed to work.

If you have set a starting number for Section 1, then you need to set
"Continue from previous section" for Section 2. It's possible that the section break is unnecessary; if you just want a different header/footer on the first page, you can use the "Different first page" setting on the Layout tab of Page Setup. See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm for more. -- Suzanne S.
