Default Wrong format on page numbers

In my heades I have "page x of y" - but when my text has a new section with a
heading "2. heading text" it suddenly is displayed like "page 2-9 of 10"
instead of just "page 9 of 10". Section 1 has the same style of formatting of
the heading - so I can't really see what's wrong

The same number format is shown in my TOC for section 2 and on.

Default Wrong format on page numbers

In the Page Number Format dialog box (for each Word section), clear the
"Include chapter number" option, and click OK.

To display the dialog box: Activate the header/footer area (for example by
double-clicking it). In Word 2003, click the Format Page Number button on
the Header and Footer toolbar. In Word 2007, click Page Number (on the
Header & Footer Tools: Design ribbon tab), and then click Format Page
Number.
