I don't quite understand But I bet it needs a section break just after your content page?? Gene -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Janet E. Smith Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 5:39 PM To: MSO Subject: [mso] Word 2003 Page Numbering Hello! I have a document in word 2003 - the stat line at the bottom of word says page 2, then sec 1, then 1/72, at .0.6", then line 1, column 1. It really is page one of 72, not page two. when I insert the table of contents, it starts as if the first page was page two and numbers from there. The automatic page numbering in the footer does the same. There isn't a break of any kind that I can see at the beginning that would account for this - how do I get it to number properly? Thanks!
