Hi i am using word 2003 and i have 3 pages that has content in each. I
would like to start the page numbers from page 2 rather than page 1 as
it is a Title Page. Is possible to do this on 2003 and how?

Thanks

Hi nvidia123,

You can:
1. Insert a 'Next Page' Section break at the end of your 1st page,
2. the open the header/footer view,
3. unlink the second section's header/footer containing the page number from the 1st section,
4. use the header/footer toolbar's number formatting button to set the page numbering for the 2nd section to start at 1.
5. Delete the page number from the 1st section

Click to expand...

File > Page Setup > Layout, check "Different first page".

If the page number still appears on the first page, delete it. Put the page
number in the header or footer of page 2, which applies to all pages from 2
onward.

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NumberingFrontMatter.htm for more
details.
