You can use a little code in the page footer's Format event
to make the page number text box invisible in the first
page:

Me.txtPageNum.Visible = (Me.Page > 1)

The page number text box can use an expression to subtract
one from the page number so it will appear as though it's
not couunting the first page:

=Page - 1
