page numbering
We have tried continuously to renumber some pages in a doctoral paper. All
the things help shows won't work. How do we change page two to be iii and page three to be 4 and so on? -- Karen F. |

page numbering
You are not really clear about what you are trying to do. Is Page 2 REALLY
Page 2 and you want to make it Page 3? Or are the page numbers simply coming up wrong? I cannot guess why anyone wants Page 2 to be display Page 3 but here is how to do it: enter the field { = { PAGE \* ARABIC \* MERGEFORMAT } +1 } Change the ARABIC if you want different style numbering. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Ladigolfer" wrote in message ...

page numbering
Yes, I see. The 2007 help assumes you only have one page that must be
unnumbered. But you have two & I sometimes have three. Try this: At the end of page 2, insert a next page section break. Put your cursor on page 3 and enter the footer or header where you wish to place page numbers (should be the section 2 footer/header). Call up the header & footer tools ribbon if it is not showing. Click the Link to previous button so that the Same as previous tab on the header/footer border disappears. Insert your page number field and format it. Note that you must do this again at the end of your front matter to restart the page numbers and change the number format to Arabic.

page numbering
After reading Terry's reply, I see that I misread your post. My revisions
are between the asterisks At the end of page *1*, insert a next page section break. Put your cursor on page *2* and enter the footer or header where you wish to place page numbers (should be the section 2 footer/header). Call up the header & footer tools ribbon if it is not showing. Click the Link to previous button so that the Same as previous tab on the header/footer border disappears. Insert your page number field, *designate the start number,* and format it. Note that you must do this again at the end of your front matter to restart the page numbers and change the number format to Arabic. Terry: I've been looking for an opportunity to use the field method of doing this. Does the TOC give correct page numbers when you use it? Good luck, PamC -- Message posted via OfficeKB.com http://www.officekb.com/Uwe/Forums.a...neral/200805/1 |

Without checking, I'm not 100% sure but logic tells me that the ToC will
display TRUE page numbers, but clicking the number will still take you to the correct destination. Terry "PamC via OfficeKB.com" u43222@uwe wrote in message news:839c2ec7b3fb2@uwe...

page numbering
For clarification purposes...the table of contents should be roman numberals
(iii) which is the second page of the paper. The third page needs to begin with regular number 1. Then the last page does not get numbered. Also, my other question is, if it has footnootes, will this affect page numbering? -- Karen F.

Karen
A ToC is just a field and there are loads of switches that you can use to control the resulting ToC. If you end the ToC with a Section Break Next Odd Page, then you can start numbering the new section from page 1. You can then create the ToC limited to the following section(s) only. This is quite a normal way to use ToCs because the ToC itself may be several pages long, so if it is in its own section, you can use its own numbering and the length of the ToC will not affect the page numbering of the following section(s). I don't understand the Footnote question? If you have entered Footnotes, the page numbering should already have accounted for the space taken by the footnotes. Terry "Ladigolfer" wrote in message ...
