MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / November 2003Page Numbering
I've read the information about page numbering at http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumbering.htm. I still can't figure something out. I have a document with 2 sections. I only want page numbering in section 2. I don't want any page numbering in section 1. Can anyone explain to me how to accomplish this? Thanks. Bill Rossi http://members.aol.com/billatny http://www.arts4u.org/rossi ================================ Hi Bill Assuming your page numbers are in the footer ... Go to section 2 in your document. View > Header and Footer. Click Switch between Header and Footer. You'll see that you're viewing section 2's footer. If the dotted line around the header says "Same as Previous", then the footer in Section 2 is set to be the same as the footer in Section 1. So you want to get rid of that. To do that, click the button on the H&F toolbar that says "Link to Previous". The text "Same as Previous" should disappear. You've now got completely separate footers. Editing the footer in Section 2 won't affect Section 1, and vice versa. So put your page numbers in the Section 2 footer. Use the Show Previous command to go to the Section 1 footer and delete your page numbers there. Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.

I. A. 1. (a). I noticed that some of the outline has changed and I'm not sure why. When I go back into Bullets and Numbering, customize the Outline Numbered box has changed. If I change back to the Outline Numbered box that I was using and then change to the correct outline number, it corrects my immediate text but makes other sections incorrect Can you help? Be sure to follow all the rules in http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html in setting up and modifying your numbering. -- Suzanne S.
