Page number including heading reference

[Island Girl]

I received a document for editing that has unusual page numbering. For
example, Page 1 says "1.1" with the first number reflecting the Article
Number and the second, the page number. But the article number was manually
placed in before the page number field code.

Since that seems like trouble ahead, can you tell me how to reference
(cross-reference?) only the number "1" while leaving out the word "Article"
in the footer? I tried all the options given in the cross-reference dialog
box and the result always had the word along with the number.

Thanks a million!

In the Format PageNumber dialog, uncheck the box for "Include chapter
number"
