Default How do I have continuous page numbering in multiple sections?

In each section, go to Format Page Number and set numbering to "Continue
from previous section." The easiest way to do this is to View | Header and
Footer and click Format Page Number on the Header and Footer toolbar. After
correcting one section, click the Show Next button on the toolbar and do it
for the next section; repeat till you reach the end of the document.

I have multiple sections in my document and word wants to renumber each
section starting with page 1. I want continuous page numbering 1-50
throughout the document. I have to have the sections because the

formatting
must be different in the different sections. Most sections are continuous
with up to 4 on a single page.

Thank you for your assistance
