How do I add page numbers Microsoft Office Word 2003

[fourbluesixpink]

this seems like it should be basic, but I can't figure out how to add page
numbers in the upper right hand corners to my documents. Can anyone explain
how to do this - I'm brand new, so I'd appreciate no computer lingo if
possible - thank you!

Go to View> Headers & Footers, Press the Tab key twice, on the H/F Toolbar
click the Page Number Button [#], then click the button labeled Close. If
you want it to read as Page # or p. #, you'll have to type the other
characters yourself - the button inserts a code that calls only for the
number. Alternatively you can use one of the AutoText items from the toolbar
and you might take a look at Word Help on Page Numbers for more info.

The simplest way, and the one intended for your purposes, is to use Insert |
Page Numbers and choose Top of Page and Right. Note that this is appropriate
only for the simplest documents. For anything more complex (especially if
you will want other content in the header), the method CyberTaz describes is
the correct one.
