Booklet with page 1 NOT title page

[tjsmags]

I created a address directory booklet. The first page is the cover/title
page. I want the next page (which is the FIRST page of detail) to be
numbered 1. When using FOOTERS and inserting page numbers it keeps numbering
the top page 1 (which I delete) and then numbering the next page 2. I want
the first detail page to be numbered 1, not 2. How can I do this?

You can start numbering at 0, but note that in a booklet Word will insist on
assigning an odd number to a recto (right-hand) page and an even number to a
verso (left-hand) page, so unless you're not duplexing, you'll have trouble
with this numbering scheme.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NumberingFrontMatter.htm. Note that
in order to omit numbering from Section 1 (as opposed to changing the format
and restarting numbering) you will need to unlink the header/footer sections
(see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm).
