Table of Contents and Page numbering
In a mulit section document with two different style of number formats, do
you have to format each section so the numbers will appear in the correct format in the table of contents. For example, my TOC and TOA are two separate sections in the the document,however they are linked. I want their numbers to be i,ii and the remaining document 1,2,3 etc. I tried formatting the page number, that worked, but only for one section, not the next linked section. |

Table of Contents and Page numbering
For page numbers in a multi-section document, you should get i, ii, iii in
each of your TOA and your TOC, as long as you specify that the page numbering format should begin at i (roman one) for the TOC and the TOA, and change the page number format to 1 (arabic one) for the body of the document. This requires different sections and section breaks for these 3 parts of the document - body, TOA, TOC. The sections then would NOT be linked, because each section of page numbering has to start over at "one" and NOT continue from the previous section, unless your TOA and TOC are going to be numbered sequentially and not separately. If the TOA and TOC are going to have the same type of numbering and continuous numbering, then you could "Link to Previous." You have to toggle off the "Link to Previous" choice for your Arabic numbering. The View-Header and Footer toolbar provides the choices for inserting page number, viewing page number options, linking to previous section, etc. -- Alice.
