How do I use word 2007 to begin page numbering anywhere after the first page?

';Third Page: Begin numbering on this page, placing the numbers at the bottom center. This will be Page 1.





The fourth page, which will be numbered Page 2. The title of the paper should not appear again at the top of this page.';How do I use word 2007 to begin page numbering anywhere after the first page?
You make the un-numbered pages a distinct section, then number the pages in the section after it, this way:





1. Click at the top of the first page you want numbered.


2. Click the Page Layout tab on the Ribbon.


3. Click the Breaks icon in the Page Setup group.


4. Insert a Next Page type section break.


5. Click on the Insert tab on the Ribbon.


6. Click the Header icon and select Edit Header.


7. Deselect Link To Previous in the Design tab that appeared on the Ribbon.


8. Go back to the Insert tab and repeat Steps 5 to 7 for the Footer.


9. If there's a page number in the header or footer for the first section, delete it.


10. Go into the second section.


11. On the Design tab again, click the Page Number icon


12. Click Format Page Numbers.


13. If you want the first section鈥檚 page numbers to count but not show, click Continuous.


14. Or, if you want the page numbering to start at one, click Start At. A 1 should show up in the list box adjacent to it.


15. Click OK.


16. Click OK to actually insert the page number.





That should do it. What you now have is two sections. Both sections have headers and footers, but the page number will appear only in the second section.





Hope that helps.
