How to Continue Page Numbering in a New Section

[EagleRed]

I have a Word 2003 document where I need to change from
portrait to landscape and back, to show a figure. I do
this by creating a new section before and just after the
page with the figure. I would like to preserve page
numbering in the footer but change tabs in each section.
How do I do this?

Thanks.

Hi Eagle,

In the landscape section:
Open the header/footer;
Disable "Same as previous" in the header/footer toolbar;
Create the header/footer you want;
Insert the page number;
Make sure the numbering format (the little hand pointing at the "#" on a
white page on the header/footer toolbar) is set to continue from previous
section,
Close the header/footer.

Repeat for the section following the landscaped one.

Cheers!

Yeah! Thanks for this bit of information, Jean-Guy! After reading a
gazillion online articles that failed to solve my problem, yours was
the only one that did
