In Word 2007, I have a document with 3 pages. I want to name the
pages 6,7,8. When I change the page number on the first page to 6,
all of the pages are 6. How do I make them 6,7,8?
When you "changed" the page number by typing over it, all you did was remove
the {PAGE} field that displays the current page number, and replace it with
fixed text.
First, put back the field. To do that, select the character '6' and delete
it; then press Ctrl+F9 to insert a pair of field markers and type the word
PAGE between them. Press F9 to update the field, which will go back to
saying 1, 2, 3.
Now change the page numbering properly: On the Insert tab of the ribbon,
click the Page Number button and choose Format Page Numbers from the menu.
In the dialog, click in the Start At box and enter 6, then click OK.
