Default page numbers and the Building Blocks.dotx etc

I should have finished by telling you that although you think that Outlook
is using Word as the email editor, it is not. Outlook now uses a trimmed
down version of Word contained in its own DLL. This does remove many of the
problems previously encountered by using Word as the email editor
(especially corporates that have updated Outlook because they have an
Exchange Server licence that entitles them to use the latest version of
Outlook), but it now means that you have to repeat any setting changes in
both Word and Outlook as they are separate entities.

I do not understand why the insertion of "page number" and "of number of
pages" has become some obscure function in 2007.
In the help it discussed enabling the Building Blocks.dotx add-in. But
when
I follow those directions there is no such add-in listed. In fact I have
no
add-ins listed except some "inactive" things.
I went and downloaded some header add-ins (why should I have to do
that???!!) and briefly saw add-in choices. But when I went to another
document they were not there.

This a part of the whole bulding blocks issue. In Outlook I have created
some Building Blocks (previously known as auto-text) but they are not
available in Word.
Why is this so complex now. where is all this stuff stored?

Help would be appreciated. Are there some detailed papers on this?

BTW - I previously used the beta and the Outlook bulding blocks were
carried
over.
