Choose Section... in the Format Menu Turn on the First Page Special option under Header/Footer. . . This causes you to have two types of head/footers: one for the first page (Where you can choose not to have a page number) an another one for the rest of the pages. Lauri Valsta valsta@cc.Helsinki.Fi

Several people have responded with "First Page Special," which works if the goal is to have the second page have a page number of 2. If, however, you want the second page to have a page number of 1, you will want to make the first page its own Section, and make your page 2 the first page of Section 2. In the Section command for Section 2, turn on Restart at 1 in the Page Number options area. -- howard@cos.com OR {uunet, decuac, sun!sundc, hadron, hqda-ai}!cos!howard (703) 883-2812 [W] (703) 998-5017 [H] DISCLAIMER: Opinions expressed are not necessarily those of the Corporation for Open Systems, its members, or any standards body.

It is more informative than *RTFM* <flame> <flame> but it does not give any help to those who have pirate copies of the software. Of course this is exactly the kind of thing that the MS Word help file states. If the user can't find the "Help" item in the menus, they may be beyond help...

Unless something changed when I wasn't looking :=), you can also specify the numeric value you wish to start counting from. So start counting at zero, and you'll get what you want. chomp the line counter x x x x x -- Alix' and Luke's Dad ( Carl Witthoft @ Adaptive Optics Associates) {decvax,linus,ima,ihnp4}!bbncca!aoa!carl OR {wjh12,mit-vax}!bbn!aoa!carl 54 CambridgePark Drive, Cambridge,MA 02140 617-864-0201 ##I know it's true: I saw it on TV##

In the Section command : :I think not. Unless something changed when I wasn't looking :=), :you can also specify the numeric value you wish to start counting :from. So start counting at zero, and you'll get what you :want. nope, 0 indicates that page numbering should be continuous from the previous document, when using "next file". If you try to start at zero for a 'single' file Microsoft figures you are being stupid and begins numbering at 1 anyway. The first method is clumsy, but seems to be the best way to do it. -- -george george@mech.seas.upenn.edu
