    Thanks Microsoft for making such a simple thing to be so complicated to accomplish

      They actually have a special button for that, but that just gets rid of the numbering on the first page. How stupid can that be.

      @Max What could be easier? If over half a million people have to lecture themselves online to do something as trivial as starting page numbering from page 3, then maybe you're looking at bad design.

    • @Realtorwilliamstringer
      @Realtorwilliamstringer Před 4 lety +1

      @Max it is because half of the buttons mentioned in the video like ‘link to previous’ are simply not there, on the page or on search. Not the fault of the guy making the video, he is trying to help, but MS is just yesterdays technology. Too full of itself to just make things easy.

    Thanks so much for sharing this video! I created a handbook for work and needed the numbering to start after the table of contents. I reached out to a coworker for assistance, and though my coworker meant well, the answer I was given was overly complicated, and confusing. Googling was no better. Your video was very clear and allowed me to meet my deadline. Thanks again!

    An invaluable video clarifying one of the worst double-failures of the MS Word design team: the unintuitive labyrinthine method for handling a common need for manuscript writers combined with abysmal lack of good documentation. One caveat: on the MS Word 2016 system here, the "link to previous section" button would not turn blue and it inserted a question not shown in the video. Overall, major thanks to Andreas for offering this video to the public.
