We have tried continuously to renumber some pages in a doctoral paper. All
the things help shows won't work. How do we change page two to be iii and
page three to be 4 and so on?

You are not really clear about what you are trying to do. Is Page 2 REALLY
Page 2 and you want to make it Page 3? Or are the page numbers simply coming
up wrong? I cannot guess why anyone wants Page 2 to be display Page 3 but
here is how to do it: enter the field

{ = { PAGE \* ARABIC \* MERGEFORMAT } +1 }

Change the ARABIC if you want different style numbering.

Yes, I see. The 2007 help assumes you only have one page that must be
unnumbered. But you have two & I sometimes have three. Try this:

At the end of page 2, insert a next page section break. Put your cursor on
page 3 and enter the footer or header where you wish to place page numbers
(should be the section 2 footer/header). Call up the header & footer tools
ribbon if it is not showing. Click the Link to previous button so that the
Same as previous tab on the header/footer border disappears. Insert your
page number field and format it. Note that you must do this again at the
end of your front matter to restart the page numbers and change the number
format to Arabic.

Good luck,
PamC

After reading Terry's reply, I see that I misread your post. My revisions
are between the asterisks

At the end of page *1*, insert a next page section break. Put your cursor on
page *2* and enter the footer or header where you wish to place page numbers
(should be the section 2 footer/header). Call up the header & footer tools
ribbon if it is not showing. Click the Link to previous button so that the
Same as previous tab on the header/footer border disappears. Insert your
page number field, *designate the start number,* and format it.
Note that you must do this again at the end of your front matter to restart the
page numbers and change the number format to Arabic.


Terry: I've been looking for an opportunity to use the field method of doing
this. Does the TOC give correct page numbers when you use it?

Good luck,
PamC

Without checking, I'm not 100% sure but logic tells me that the ToC will
display TRUE page numbers, but clicking the number will still take you to
the correct destination.

For clarification purposes...the table of contents should be roman numberals
(iii) which is the second page of the paper. The third page needs to begin
with regular number 1. Then the last page does not get numbered. Also, my
other question is, if it has footnootes, will this affect page numbering?

A ToC is just a field and there are loads of switches that you can use to
control the resulting ToC. If you end the ToC with a Section Break Next Odd
Page, then you can start numbering the new section from page 1. You can then
create the ToC limited to the following section(s) only. This is quite a
normal way to use ToCs because the ToC itself may be several pages long, so
if it is in its own section, you can use its own numbering and the length of
the ToC will not affect the page numbering of the following section(s).

I don't understand the Footnote question? If you have entered Footnotes, the
page numbering should already have accounted for the space taken by the
footnotes.
