1st page says page 3

I have an 8 page document but the first page says "page 3". So if I want to
print only the second page I have to put in the print range "page 4". How do
I get the first page to be page 1?

BillyBoy,
Assuming you have one section in your document and also assuming that the
page numbers are in the header/footer of your document. Go to the header and
footer, on the header and footer toolbar click the formatting pagenumber
button, check if next to start with there is a one and not a three.

I don't have page numbering, and I don't a use header or footer. This is
just a simple church bulleting, but when I open the document, the lower left
hand corner says "page 3."

Despite your statements, this is what you need to do:

1. View | Header and Footer.

2. On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Format Page Number.

3. In the ensuing dialog, check the box for "Continue from previous
section," and click OK.

If the document contains only one section, this should work.
