Page Numbering

I want to insert page numbers in a booklet (using Word 2000) but do not want a number on first page as that will be the cover. How do I do this please?

Hi Kay,

Using Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of { }, construct the following field at
the location where you want the page numbers to appear

{ IF { PAGE } > 1 { PAGE } }

Use Alt+F9 to toggle off the field codes

With the above, the second page will be numbered 2

If you want the number on the second page to be 1, use

{ IF { PAGE } > 1 { = { PAGE } - 1 } }

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps
