Multiple Page 1's in single document

[zSplash]

I have a document that consists of multiple (say, 8) sub-documents. For
ease of use, the creators want to create it in a single document. The
trouble is each sub-document needs to be begin with Page 1. How can I do
that?

TIA

Hi zSplash,

Put a Section Break between each "sub-document" and use Insert>Page
Numbers>Format to set the page number of each Section to start at 1, or use
the following macro to do that:

Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.Sections.Count
ActiveDocument.Sections(i).Headers(1).PageNumbers.StartingNumber = 1
Next i

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps

Hej, Doug. I hope it hasn't been too long for you to get this response.
(I'll give it awhile.) Thanks so much for your input; I haven't been
successful so far.

So, I have tried your suggestion. I need to have sub-Doc1 have (i.e.) pages
1 to 4, marked, sub-Doc2 have pages 1 to 15, sub-Doc3 have pages 1 to 10,
etc. It just doesn't result in that, no matter what I try (including your
ideas). If I run the code on a document with 7 sections, I still have a
document numbering from page 1 to page 20 (instead of, say, page 1 to 3,
page 1 to 2, etc.) Any other suggestions?

TIA

Try this:

Page Setup Tab Layout. Click Special First Page.

Okay. Sorry about that. I was afraid the old posting was stale, and I
needed the answer. How long until a thread becomes "stale"?
