I frequently have to append numerous files together.  I'm wondering if
there's a way to retain the page numbers from the original files when I
append them together into one larger file. This doesn't seem to be a problem
unless I'm appending files in which the first file or couple files don't have
page numbers.

For example, if Doc1 has no page number, and Doc2 has pages 1-5, when I try
appending them, I get the single page of Doc1 with no page number, then the
next page (the first page of Doc2) has a page number of 2 instead of 1.

Anyone know of a way I can retain the page numbers as I'm appending?

Thanks.

Separate the files with Section Breaks and format the page numbering to
start at 1 in each Section.

Hope this helps.
