Hello, dissertation in in a couple days here's the challenge:

the first few pages need to be numbered in Roman numerals, then numbering needs to start in numbers (at 1) on the first page of the first chapter.

can anyone help me out!? i can only get them either as roman or as numbers...

cheers

Put a section break in at the start of the first chapter - numerals in the first section, numbers in the next section and thereafter. Simple?

I'm going from memory here, but I thought you could change the style/layout/text of the numbering in each section individually and either make the next section follow the numbering of the previous one or start again. You may need someone with Word open to give you a walk through..... sorry
