Page Numbering
I am trying to remove the page numbering from only the last few pages of my
document in Word. Each time I try to remove it from my footer I remove the page numbering from all of the pages. Is there any easy way to suppress page numbering from just one page? Thanks. |

Page Numbering
One page or "the last few pages"? If just the last, it can be done most
efficiently with a conditional field. If several pages, then you probably need to insert a section, break, unlink the footer in the last section from the previous one, and delete the page number from the last-section footer. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm for a discussion of this type of numbering. -- Suzanne S.

Page Numbering
Thanks so much Suzanne. I'm used to working with WordPerfect and I'm totally
lost when it comes to Word. Could you tell me how to remove the page numbering from the last page only? Kristen "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: One page or "the last few pages"?

Page Numbering
With a conditional field:
{ IF { PAGE } { NUMPAGES } "Text you want in the footer on all but the last page" } Each pair of field delimiters (the things that look like braces but can't be entered from the keyboard) must be inserted using Ctrl+F9 (though you can use the appropriate buttons on the Header and Footer toolbar to insert the PAGE and NUMPAGES fields). The material between the quotes can be pasted in; it's just your entire footer, which can contain graphics, tables, etc.--makes for an odd-looking field, but you'll see this only when the field code is displayed. F9 to update the field, then Alt+F9 (if necessary) to hide it. Note that this will not work if the number of pages in the document is different from the page number of the last page (because you've restarted numbering in a given section); if only one section is involved, you can use the SECTIONPAGES field instead. -- Suzanne S.
