How do I automatically get continuous page numbers for 81 pages a document
that has 5 sections? The page numbers appear in the footer as “Page x of y.”
Each section, from section 2 through section 5, shows “Same as Previous”
above the footer. The header across all 5 sections is the same but the
footers are not. There is discontinuity between section 2 and 3.

The page numbers for sections 1 and 2 are continuous and read “ Page 1 of
81” through “Page 9 of 81.” However, the footer on the first page of section
3 reads “Page 1 of 81.” It should read “Page 10 of 81.” The page numbers
continue in sequence though sections 3, 4 and 5. The last page of the
document shows “Page -72- of 81.” [Note: starting in section 4, dashes are
automatically inserted before and after the page number.]

How do I get rid of this discontinuity between sections 2 and section 3? I
want the first page of the document to read “Page 1 of 81” and the last page
to read “Page 81 of 81.”
