I hate to say it, but it's a bit late to be worrying about this. You should
have ironed out this sort of problem long before now. -- Suzanne S.

Good luck. Page numbering restarts are connected to section breaks and
choices you've made. Sometimes these breaks can be hard to figure out. Go through your sections resetting the options. http://addbalance.com/usersguide/sections.htm. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Thanks for the response Charles,
I figured it out in the end. I foolishly added a landscape page to a portrait layout document at the last minute which threw out all of my page numbering (and this is what obviously set up the section break you referred to). All I had to do in fact was go into the "format page number" and then click the "continue from previous" option rather than having a specific number entered in the "start at" option box. Phew!
