Default Same problem with headers/footers

Hello! I stumbled across this post as I was researching the same problem, and I can't seem to make it work out. I want different headers (my name on evens and my book title on odds) with consistent page numbers starting from the second page of chapter one. I used section breaks for each chapter so that the first page of each chapter would be unique (no page number or header).



Now when I set up the headers just how I want them, the pages numbers are only showing up on odd pages! I've done as much as I could, and no success. The previous instructions were very confusing to me. I will need a more simplified description of what to do. This isn't my forte! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You will have to insert page numbers in the even header (or footer) as well. The easiest way is to click in the header and press Alt+Shift+P. Select "Different first page" on the Header & Footer Tools Design tab (on the ribbon) to omit the first page header in a given section. For more, take a look at http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...atter_2007.htm.
