Using Windows XP, Word 2007. In a particular document , the page numbers
start at 0. How can I get them to start at 1? When I open a new document,
the page numbering starts at 1.

With the cursor at the start of the document, click Insert > Page Number >
Format Page Numbers. Choose the "Continue from previous section" option or
change the "Start at" box to "1".

If the document contains more than one section, and if any of the later
sections restart the numbering, you'll have to change them separately.
