Page numbering by Sections w/o Heading Styles
I have a 350+ page master document which contains 31 subdocuments. The
original subdocuments came from several sources, so using a standard Heading Style would not work. This is an Emergency Operations Plan for a Northern California county, and the document has been in use for several years. When I updated this document recently, the county asked that the pages, which had been numbered consecutively, be numbered by Section. The reason being that adding or deleting pages would only require repaginating that section. Therefore, I need to number each Section individually & sequentially within that section, i.e., 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, etc. Now I find that Word "must" use Heading Styles to allow Chapter Titles to be added to the page number. Is there any other way to include Section Number - Page Number so the pages print correctly, and the TOC includes the Section-Page Number. I have embedded the TOC entries within each subdocument. I would have used a page layout tool like Adobe InDesign to create such a large and complex document, but the county uses Microsoft Office as its standard. Is there any relief in Word 2007? Any assistance you can provide would be appreciated. |

Page numbering by Sections w/o Heading Styles
Hi
The only way to do chapter numbering in Word is to use the tools that Word provides for the purpose, and that includes the built-in heading styles. The following may help: I want to include the chapter number with the page number in the Header - how can I do this? http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Number...pterNumber.htm Why Master Documents corrupt http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Genera...ocsCorrupt.htm How to recover a Master Document http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Genera...MasterDocs.htm Hope this helps.
