Default Word 2007

I use Word 2007.
I received a document in different, separated files.
The document has a page numbering, 0:1, 1:1 1:2 1.3, 2:1, 3:1, 3:2, etc,
some chapters have only one page, others have up to 60 pages.
The first number is chapter, the second number the page in the chapter.
As I received the document in different files, I want to put it together in
a single document. When I do so, by copy and paste, the numbering is not the
same as it should be.
To fix this I have spent hours, but the numbering is still not automatic.
Thus I have to make a break on every single page to get the page numbers
correct. And I know, of course, that when I will have to edit this document I
will have to start all over again...
I work on a swedish version of Office Word 2007 with Windows 7 and the
document I received is Word 97-2003.

You need to insert a Section break between each of the documents and set the
page numbering in each section so that it starts at 1, rather than continues
from the previous section and then use the following field construction to
get numbering that includes the section number

{ SECTION }:{ PAGE }

You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters.

You may also be able to do it by clicking on the "Include chapter number"
box in the Page Number Format dialog, but that will required that each of
the separate documents starts with the same Style (probably Heading 1)
containing the number that is to appear before the page number.

Hope this helps.
