Word Continuous Page Numbering Through Section Breaks
continuous page numbering through section breaks
The page numbering in footer returns to 1 after every section break in my long document. I've repeatedly "fixed" this by clicking the "Continue from previous section" button in the Page Number Format dialog box for each section and saved the document. But when I open the document again, each section starts back at page 1. I'm using Word 2007, odd and even page headers and footers. What am I missing? Thanks.
Re: continuous page numbering through section breaks
What you are doing should be working. However, sometimes Word doesn't recognize certain modifications and consequently won't allow you to save the document. After you've selected the "Continue from previous" option, does it help if you also make a change in the document, such as adding and deleting a character, before saving? You may also want to try running the following macro, just to be sure that the restart option is being modified for all sections (even continuous ones without visible headers and footers): Sub ContPageNumbering() Dim s As Section For Each s In ActiveDocument.Sections s.Footers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).PageNumbers _ .RestartNumberingAtSection = False Next s End Sub -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP

I'm not familiar with macros - bit of a newbie. But I will doublecheck on saving after making other changes. Thanks.

1.continuous page numbering and section breaks
heres a fun one: i mail-merged a 2-page letter, and ended up with a 328 page word file...chocked full of page 1 and 2. each newly-merged letter begins a new section, and each new section starts with page 1. so, if i want to begin printing with page 57, i cant. even though there is a 57th page in the document, word recognizes it as "page 1" in that section. question: can i somehow automatically remove all the section breaks, and/or have the pages continuously numbered across the whole document?

3.Continuous Section breaks, Next page section breaks, headers and f
I am making a family cookbook (up to 200 pages now) that has different next page sections for different catagories and my thought was odd/even footers to keep the pages on the outside. Worked great!!! Then in comes somone else who changed my recipes to "columns" instead of tabbing here, there, moving stuff around up and down like I did. It worked MUCH better and turned out beautifully and now everything is down to the wire until I went to finish the headers/footers. Now, they are mostly odd footer pages where a new continious section break has been added on that page, Now there are new odd page footers where "technically" they should be even pages and there are a very few even pages here and there. Can anyone help? My intentions were good, I just made a mess. Sorry. If you can figure this out, you are wonderul.
4.Code for new page section break adding continuous section break
I have a macro which inserts a file at the end of an existing document. I require a new page section break and the first line of the code moves the curser to the end of the document then inserts a new page section break, after that I have code which sets new margins, two columns, unlinks headers/footers etc. However when I run the macro the section break it inserts is a continuous break - although the code says next page. Any ideas anyone?
