Default Problems with page numbering

I am working with a fairly large document. The page numbering stopped in the
middle. I could not restart it at the correct number. It would revert to
P1. If I manually changed the page number to 55 (which would be the correct
sequential page number) the page I changed and all subsequent pages would be
numbered 55. I have tried the sugestions in help and they do not work. Any
sugestions?

Default Problems with page numbering

In the section that begins on page 55, View | Header and Footer. Click on
the Format Page Number button and choose "Continue from previous section."
This assumes that the header/footer includes a PAGE field; if not, use
Insert Page Number to insert one.
