I have a 400 page document with a similar issue. There are several sections and all I need to do is have continuous page numbers from 1 to 400. I tried the suggestion above and it works. However, since I have 400 pages is there an even easier way to do this?
Thanks

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
