How do you add continuous page numbers to a document in Microsoft Word 2003?

Question

I have to have a header with my last name and continuous page numbers on my paper. I've been able to get my name on every page, but the page number won't change. (It says 1 on the top of every page instead of changing to 2 and 3 and so on).
Please help!

Answer 1

In Word versions prior to Word 2007 (Vista):



1. Click the Insert->Page Numbers menu item.

2. Set the Position and Alignment list boxes to put the page number where you want it.

3. Click OK.



To put any other text into the header, double click in the Header on the page and enter the text. Double click outside the header, or close the Header and Footer pop-up menu to get out.



In Word 2007:



1. On the Insert tab of the Ribbon, click Page Number in the Header and Footer group.

2. Select Top of Page and pick a format.



To put any other text into the header, double click in the Header on the page and enter the text. Double click outside the header to get out.



Hope that helps.
