Default Section Number not showing up right on page numbers

This is one of those headaches that come back every once in a while.

I have a problem with my sections. I have a report with about 6 sections
and
a table of contents in the beginning. I put my first section break after
the
table of contents, and I want the first section and each section after
that
to have page numbers with both the section and page number, but the first
section page numbers always say page 2-1 instead of page 1-1. The second
section and subsequent sections read correctly. I can't figure out why
the
page numbers and captions don't read correctly because I changed the
format
in the bullets menu to start at Section 1. Anyways, a little help would
be
great.
