Need help with simple (I hope) edit for continuous page numbering across sections, starting with 0

Default Thanks

Thank you, Guessed. Unfortunately, that didn't work for me. Perhaps more information is needed:


  1. The document in question is a series of sequential 1-pg login sheets, generated through a merge action. I need to apply the macro to the generated document. Without it, all footers say "Classroom Information Sheet #1". There is more info in the footer, but the page number field is what I need to address.
  2. Though I'm not a VBA expert, I am proficient in Word, so please don't make the assumption that I don't know when I need to use section breaks vs page breaks.
  3. In the code you provided, wouldn't the "restart numbering at section" line need to be false for continuous numbering across sections? Also, I don't need any separator hyphens or other formatting; the merge document contains all the formatting required. Again, I don't know VBA, but that's what your code seems to include.

Again, thanks for your help and taking the time to answer. If you or anyone else can assist further, I'd appreciate it!

My code is setting up the formatting for Section 1 only. There is no preceding section so the restart setting is irrelevant to that code but I left that and the other settings in there so you could refer to it and tweak if required. The code you provided in your original post was lacking in these auxiliary settings and depending on your initial document, some of them may have be required in the loop you are running.
