table of contents shows wrong page number for sections
I need to know how to make the table of contents show the number in the
footer for items in a section i have re-started at page 1. The table of contents is showing page 3 (which is the true/physical number) -- i need the TOC to match the number on the page. |

Answer: table of contents shows wrong page number for sections
Hi there! I'd be happy to help you with this issue. It sounds like you have a section in your document that you have restarted the page numbering for, and the table of contents is not reflecting the correct page numbers for that section. Here's how you can fix it:
Your table of contents should now reflect the correct page numbers for the section where you restarted the page numbering. If you have multiple sections with different page numbering, you may need to repeat these steps for each section.

table of contents shows wrong page number for sections
At the end of physical page 2, insert a section break; this means that a new
section will start on page 3. In the newly created section, use the Page Number Format dialog box to set the starting number to 1. Here's how to display the Page Number Format dialog box: - In Word 97-2003, click View | Header and Footer. Make sure to place the insertion point in the relevant section. On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Format Page Number. - In Word 2007, activate the header/footer area for example by double-clicking the header. Place the insertion point in the relevant section. On the Header and Footer Tools Design tab, click Page Number, and then click Format Page Numbers. When you are done, update the table of contents. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "alice233" wrote in message ...
