I am using Office 2003.  I have a 70 page document.  It has multiple section
breaks, created by Word, I assume, when I imported material from other
documents into this one.  

I cannot convince the automatic page numbering to connect to previous
sections and number pages consecutively.  I think if I can get the section
breaks out, so that Word sees this as one document, the page numbering
function will work properly.

In the Edit > Replace dialog, type the code  ^b  in the Find What box.
Leave the Replace With box empty, and click the Replace All button.

If you don't remember the code the next time you need to do this,
click the More button and then, with the cursor in the Find What box,
click the Special button. Choose "Section break" from the list. That
will put the proper code in the box.
