Page numbering in Word 365

Copper Contributor

I need to start page number 1 on the document’s 8th page. I Googled directions but the numbering still begins on the cover page. Help! I tried section breaks, page breaks, no luck.

Hi, You did put a section break - but did you disconnect the second section from the first one? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/add-different-page-numbers-or-number-formats-to-different... Kind regards Hans

@Hans Le Roy I did everything I was instructed to do, but it still starts numbering at page 8 instead of page 1.  I need someone in the room with me to prove that I'm not crazy!
