I want my table of contents to read

Table of Contents:
Intro i
Heading1 1
Heading2 3

And there are three problems:
1. When making a new section via section break, the section 2 contents begin
on the next page, but the page numbering begins on the page of the section
break.

2. I cannot make the intro page 'i' as the title page and the table of
contents take up two pages and I can't start page numbering at -2.

3. When I go to section two and change the page numbers to restart in this
section it resets the page number codes for section one even after de-linking
the sections.

This is a fairly common numbering scheme and it is frustrating it is so hard
to accomplish!!

Thank for your help!

And note that your title page *is* page i, and your intro thus begins on
page iii.

Suzanne,

Thank you, I see the solution to each problem.

1. To delink to the next session you must be clicked on the section you want
to delink. Otherwise upon choosing section break ( next page ) will make the
following page, NOT page one of the new section.

2. Make the title page and the TOC section one and leave unnumbered.

3. As in (1.) above, you must ensure each section is delinked from the one
above. If you have 17 sections you must delink 16 times (you cannot delink
the first section)
Also, once formatting the page number styles, you can then insert the new
page numbers from the header footer tab (W2007)

Thank you,

You don't need to unlink the sections just to restart numbering or change
the number format (provided the other content of the footer remains the same
or is changed via a StyleRef field), but you do need to unlink if you want
to change the content (or delete it entirely).

So if you just have a page number in the same place on every page, you can
restart numbering and even change from roman to arabic numerals without
unlinking, but to omit numbering on pages other than the first in a section
(for which you can use "Different first page" and leave the First Page
Footer empty), you must unlink the section from the preceding (if any) and
following sections.
