Default Why do my page numbers go wacko after page 3?

I am making a cookbook. I have checked all of the settings and it is set to
continue. But after page 3, the next page says 2, and the next page says 2,
and so on. Also, the format of the numbers has changed after page 3. Somebody
please help!

Thanks,

Leesa

There's a good chance the number has been inserted as plain text rather than
as a PAGE field. Delete the page number from your header/footer and reinsert
using the Insert Page Number button on the Header and Footer toolbar.
