    Thank you, thank you!

    Sorry, I missed your post earlier and just saw the one below.

    It worked like a charm! But, of course, you knew it would!

    To display the dialog box: In Word 2007, double-click a header to activate
    it.
    Then click Header & Footer Tools tab | Page Number | Format Page Numbers. If

    Footer toolbar.

    Okay. But I don't have any page numbers in the document. I only see the
    ones
    in the Word "frame" that are showing for any Word document. How would that
    be
    formatted? I thought that was just Word keeping track of how many pages are
    in the doc. How do I get rid of that blank 4th and blank 6th page that I
    can't get to?

    The "issue" is caused by the page numbers being formatted to start at 1
    rather than continue from the previous section.

    I pulled the first part, where I've having the problem and put it on
    Dropio.com. You can see it here. The whole doc is 93 pages, but the >> >> > problem
    is just he "hidden" page 4 and page 6. I left the table that follows the
    section after page 6 in case that is important, but deleted the info in
    it
    because it was full of people's names and emails. The reason for the
    section
    breaks in nearly all my cases is change in header. These pages are >> >> > appendices
    for a report.

    I have a few section breaks that are causing hidden blank pages. I've
    triple

    tell

    seem to be fine.
