Simplest is to insert a Section Break Next Right Page after the ToC, and restart page numbering with the new section. (You can then also number your front-matter pages with romal numerals, and it doesn't matter how many pages the ToC ends up occupying.) Specifics on how to do those two things vary with your version of Word (2003? 2007?) |

As Peter says, specifics vary by version, but see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumbering.htm for the general principles and, for specifics: "How to set up a document with front matter numbered separately" http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm (Word 2003 and earlier) http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...atter_2007.htm (Word 2007 and 2010) -- Suzanne S.

How to start page numbering on the page after the TOC?

Ok. Now, in my page numbering, I'm trying to say "Page X of Y" in section 2, but no page numbering in the first section. I've got that working. However, now I need to change the "Y" value. It's a 10 page document, but I don't want to count the first two pages, as they are the title page and TOC. The first page after the TOC says "Page 1 of 10". The last page says "Page 8 of 10". I need to change that to "Page 1 of 8" and "Page 8 of 8". It sounds like you need to replace 'Y' with a SectionPages field. In Word 2011 this is done via Insert|Field... and then either look through all fields or the 'Numbering' section. Hope this helps. -- Cheers, Steve The reply-to email address is a spam trap.

Or, as Suzanne noted, just Reveal Field Codes and type the change. |

Hard to tell from the threading, but it appears from the timing of messages
that in fact that's what David did. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Peter T. Daniels" wrote in message ...
