Default Help!: Page #'s - Only specific part of document...??

Ok - here's the deal:

I hadve a multi-page document with multiple pages of frontmatter, followed
by content.

I would like to have the frontmatter pages UN-numbered, and the content
pages numbered, starting with 1. How do I do this?


I've split the documents in 2 sections, but right now it #'s the frontmatter
1 to 5 and then starts the content at 1 again. If I delete the frontmatter pg
#'s in Section 1, it deletes all of the pg#'s from the document How do I get
rid of just the frontmatter ones?

Your help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

With the cursor in the content part of your document, open the Header/Footer
pane by double clicking on the page number and uncheck the Same as Previous
or Link to Previous. Then go to the Header Footer in the first Section of
the document and remove the page number field.
