Using page numbers on Word

[portoman]

Hi

 

This is a problem which I think should be pretty easy to solve, yet I haven't been able to yet ! Basically I have to submit work and page number the document, but I only want the page numbers to begin from the third page of the document i.e. first two pages with no page number. I've tried but I either end up page numbering the cover page or just leaving it. Any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance.

I'm hoping it will work with Word 2010 !

Hi portoman and welcome to ExTS

 

Just interested .....did DSTM's link work for 2010 ?

Hi Portoman. These are the instructions specific to Office Word 2010.

Basically the same.

As long as you have section breaks in the document, you can start page numbering in the next section.
