I have a 10 page document that starts numbering at 3 on page 2. I have done a
cut and paste from another document and it still starts at 3. How can I fix
this?
 
You don't mention the Word version you are using.
The copy and paste could contain a section break and that may affect your
page numbering.
For 2003 and prior, go into view Header Footer mode, Format Page Number
icon, change the start at number. Before coming out of the H&F mode, use the
Show Next, Show Previous arrow icons to ensure you don't have any other
sections that have different settings due to not being linked, and hence may
show different page numbers.
Hope this helps
