Default Page numbering isn't working-I get the first page ONLY

Hey, guys. I've followed the advice given here and elsewhere about how to begin page numbering on the third page of my document. However, my result was to get "Page 1" where I wanted it (on page three) and then NOTHING else. There is no sequential numbering at all. Furthermore, backing out of the document to an earlier saved version, I can't even get any page numbering (other than the first page), even though I'm simply starting at the first page with "insert" > "page number" > "bottom of page" etc. I've done the section breaks as instructed, gone into "Page Number Format" and verified the Page Numbering field is marked "Start at" and the number selected is "1." My document is over 80 pages so far, so I really don't want to have to go through major contortions of cut/pasting or re-typing. I'm so frustrated with this I could scream. I don't understand why this isn't working, even on documents saved and named completely differently. Please help. I'm about ready to go through the trouble of relearning Word Perfect and NEVER using MS again.
