I would like to know if there is a way to have the first 5 pages of a 380
page document be not have a page number then on page five the numbering
should start at 5. I can get the first page without a number but not the
first 5. Thanks for your help
 
Probably but it depends on what application you're talking about...surely
not FrontPage (which is what this newsgroup is all about)...maybe Word?
Publisher? dunno you didn't say.

Hi Jet,

You must be talking about Word?

If you notice that most pages in the beginning start with i, ii, iii....
Do that for the first five (or what ever pages).. Then do a "section break"
how?
Insert a section break
Click where you want to insert a section break.
On the Insert menu, click Break. (section Page----)

then

Restart page numbering with 1 for each chapter or section
If you haven't already done so, insert a section break where you want to
restart page numbering.
How?

Click in a section or select multiple sections in which you want to restart
page numbering.
On the Insert menu, click Page Numbers.

Click Format.
In the Start at box, enter 1.

Not FrontPage but an easy solution nonetheless

Just happen to know that one
Under Section break types, click the option that describes where you want
the new section to begin.

????

You don't have page numbers in web "pages" unless you number them - a "page"
in a web site is an individual html file.

You're in the wrong group, if you're asking about MS Word.
