Stop Word from counting first three pages as part of the document
Document is 23 pages. 1st is a cover page, 2nd and 3rd are TOC's. These
pages were not created using a Word template. Footer begins on page four, however, it reads Page 1 of 23. I need it to read Page 1 of 20. How do I format this and still have everything in one document? |

Stop Word from counting first three pages as part of the document
Hi Nic,
It looks like you're using Section breaks to start the numbering on page 4, so select the '23', press Shift-F9 to reveal the field code and change 'NUMPAGES' to 'SECTIONPAGES', then press F9 to update the field. Providing your document has only the two Sections, the page count should now be correct. If it isn't, post back. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Nic" wrote in message ...
