MS Office Forum / Word / Tables / May 2008Adjusting pages numbers in my TOC
Hi, I have a 10 page document in which the footer has page numbers, however, I don't want the the first four pages as part of the page numbering scheme because the body of my document starts on physical page 5. So via formula i have adjsted the page numbering scheme. I have the physical page 5 displaying as " Page 1 Of 5" then physical page two displays "Page 2 of 5" etc... When I create my TOC the first page of the body of my document sais "5" because Word is counting the physical pages. It doesn't match my numbering scheme. How do I adjust the TOC page numbers so it will display the body of my document as page 1? Thanks Ivano I take it that you used a calculated page field instead of inserting a section break and restarting numbering? See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NumberingFrontMatter.htm for some general principles.  SignatureSuzanne S.

I now added a section break and clicked on the "start at page 1" on physical page 5. So the page number and TOC are correct but my total number of pages... NUMPAGES... still counts the first set of pages as part of its range. The "Start at" option doesn't adjust the total number NUMPAGES count? Am I doing something wrong or do I have to adjust the NUMPAGES via formula? > I take it that you used a calculated page field instead of inserting a > section break and restarting numbering?
