[comp.text.tex] Simple question: page numbers in header

jmcn@castle.ed.ac.uk (J McNicol) (06/11/91)

I'm starting with emTeX and have a pretty simple question - how
to change page numbering in a report style so numbers are in the header
rather than the footer.  I've tried:
\pagestyle{myheadings}
\markright{}

after each \chapter, but this won't work for the first page of a chapter,
nor can I make the page number centered when it does put it at the top.
What am I doing wrong, please?! Do I have to do some deep TeX hacking?

Thank you very much for any help, I know this isn't an exciting problem,
but it's got me stumped, even with latex and tex manuals in front of me!
