Stuck a Page 0 - extremely frustrating

Have big problem with page numbering!
Document has multiple sections. Most are New Page, some are continuous.
Have disabled all 'same as previous' in headers and footers as all are
different.
Problem exists between Section 5 and Section 6. Sections 1 thru 4 have no
page numbering inserted. Section 5 shows page 1 of 80. Section 6 shows page
0 of 80. No matter what I do - delete page 0 and do cntrl F9 PAGE (with and
without any switch) - go to format and choose continue from previous section,
or start at 2 (which is the what should show) - it still shows '0'!
Very Frustrating.
Need help desperatly as I have to have this fixed and printed by the morning.

look at http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumber0.htm.

There is a bug in Word that is different in different versions (including
different SRs).
See http://www.addbalance.com/word/pagexofy.htm or
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/AppErrors/PageXofY.htm for information on Page
X of Y problems. You may also want to take a look at:
