This was easy to do in Office 2003 but I cannot figure it out in 07. I click on the header and then the number icon but whatever number I type in stays there on every page. Help wants me to do some add-in, but they are all disabled and there isn't any to add.

How do I just insert the number 4 in the footer so that the next page is 5?

Use Ctrl+F9 and type page between the { } so that you have { page } Use
Alt+F9 to toggle off the display of field codes.

Hope this helps.

I'm not following what steps you're performing...

How about going to the Insert tab, then clicking the "Page Number" button in the Header & Footer group?
