Cannot get page numbers to show in page footers
Hello, I am unable to get page numbers to appear in the page footers of a document I have. Here's the situation: http://i.imgur.com/nP9n4mW.png Whenever I have the Page Number Format window open, and I click OK, no page numbers appear. Does anyone know why page numbers are not appearing? Page numbering is supposed to start in Section 3 of the document. In other words, the first page of Section 3 is supposed to show as page "1" in the table of contents that we see in Section 2 of the screenshot, and it should also show "1" in the footer section.

Formatting page numbers does not insert them. Do NOT use the command to insert page numbers, though without planning.
Page numbers are normally inserted in headers or footers. If you use the command to insert page numbers at anything other than "current location" it will replace any existing header or footer in the location you specify. If you are editing a header or footer, you can tell Word to insert a page number at the current location. It will insert one, formatted per your specifications. Automatic page numbers in Word are fields. These can be:

Charles, I never thanked you for this post from a few months ago. I wound up needing it again. So, a very-delayed thank you for your post!
