Page Numbers and Section Breaks
I want to add page numbers to only a portion of a Word document. I read the
help files, but can't really say I understood them. I inserted a section break at the beginning of the section where I want to use numbers, and added page numbers to the new section, beginning with "37". That worked fine, but page numbers were also added to the first section, beginning with "1". I don't want those pages numbered at all. I tried to delete only the page numbers from the first section, but the help files tell me I need to "break the connection between the sections." I can't find any instructions for doing that. I would appreciate any assistance in numbering only one group of pages in a document. If I'm on the right track, how do I break the connection between sections? Thank very much for your help. |

Page Numbers and Section Breaks
OC,
Go to the header and footer, click on the next section button (last button of the toolbar) if necessary to get in the second section, click on the same as previous button in the header and footer toolbar (you will easily recognize it as it will be highlighted (at least in version 2003), then go to the first section and remove your numbering from the section by deleting it.
