a doc in words 2003 created but when open in word 2007 the page # in the
header is not showing the actual page e.g 1 of 9

But when double click on the header or edit the page the header page
numbering corrects itself and display 1 of 9. if printview it will show 1 of
9. But if just open without editting it will show page 1 of 1. Some sort of
editting is required to get the numbering correct. How do ensure that if
users open the document the header page is automatically show 1 of 9 without
any user required to make any editting or attempt to edit just for the sake
of the page number on the header to refresh to actual 1 of 9

Thanks Suzanne,
the MVP doc talks about Words 2000 SP3, but this issue that i face is on
Words 2007 SP1. Does this apply as well?

It's been an intermittent problem in all versions, so I see no reason for
Word 2007 to be immune.
