Recently I purchased a new unit. it came with Word 2007...Wow! Just what I
wanted to do with business speeding along at 1000 mph, be forced into
learning a brand new word processing system! It has really slowed my word
processing tasks. I'm getting there but it's taking a while. Sadly I find
that I put off homework till I can get back to the office and my Word 2003.
ANYWAY, in 2003 I could simply point and click to insert "page _ of _"
virtually anywhere in the docu I wished. So far in 2007 the only thing I have
found for this is a new, scary looking window that makes you select where
you want it and provides only a few pre-selected options. Am I in the right
place? Is there an easier, less complicated way? Clearer instructions in Help
would be a major help alone. All ideas, suggestions, and comments will be
greatly appreciated. Thanks, K.

Yeah, I agree, but it isn't all that tough once you find your way around.
Many have found it to be even more efficient once you surmount the learning
curve For your page numbering the most direct route I've found:

On the Insert Tab - Header & Footer Group click Page Number point to Bottom
of Page or Top of Page, scroll down to the "X of Y" options & select either
Bold Numbers 1, 2 or 3, then select & reformat as desired.
