How do I start Page Numbering from the 4th page in a document?

[Guest]

I have a multi page document, includiing 2 covering letters and a table of
contents. I want to start page numbering at 1, but starting from the 4th page
ie - the first 3 pages are not numbered. The Table of Contents is not linked
to the main document. Insert Page numbers seems to number the pages fot the
entire document.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NumberingFrontMatter.htm. In your
case, you would put a next-page section break between the 3rd and 4th pages,
have no page numbering in section 1, and page numbers set to start at 1 in
section 2.
