In an earlier post I explained that one of the main ways to change the order and formatting of page numbers in different sections is to break the link between the sections.
In this video I walk you through how to use 1, 2, 3 page numbering in the main part of a document and i, ii, iii page numbering in the appendices:

Are you using the field codes? (It looks like you might have them reversed.) For more information on chapter headings in page numbers, see blogs.office.com/.../chapter-headings-with-page-numbers.aspx.

There is a field code. When I use the toggle field code this is what it reads"SEQ section \c \* MERGEFORMAT". I would like to know what this means and where does it pick up the number from? I have copied this field from a previous manual but it doesn't seem to want to work in this manual. My table of contents updates fine other than every page starts with 1- . I have 10 sections. I want each section's page numbers to reflect what section it is and what page. Example: Section 5 page 10 would look like 5-10. Section 7 page 3 would be 7-3. Any suggestions? I am quite new at this field thing.
Then probably the fastest fix for you is to change the field code you already have. What you want is (press Ctrl+F9 to get the braces) {Section} - {Page}, and to make sure that your section footers aren't linked. The other way is to use the instructions I linked to in my previous reply.
Field codes can be fun when you get used to them--and they can give you a lot of control.
Anyone else have an answer for Sara?
I have a document that was created by someone else a long time ago. It's 23 pages long, but only the first six pages have numbers. There are some continuous section breaks in the document for format changes within a page, but that shouldn't matter. How do I get the page numbers to continue through the entire document?
Thanks!
I have a 5 section document. Section 1 is the header page. Section 2 is the document management details, numbered in latin (i, ii, iii...). I would like to start roman page numbering in section 3 and the total number of pages to be the total number of pages in section 3 to 5. How do I go about doing this?

That sounds tricky. Is possible to combine sections 3-5? Or do they use different formatting (for example, portrait versus landscape orientation)?
Hey cardecs,
Here's a solution that might work for ya.
Insert a bookmark at the very end of section 5. To do this go to Insert and select Bookmarks. Add a bookmark and call it something like "endOfSection".
Next you need to edit the footer for section 3. The easiest way to do this is to modify your original page x of y footer in section 3. Right click the second number, select Edit Field..., click Field Codes on the bottom left, and paste in "PAGEREF endOfSection \* ROMAN \h".
You can either repeat these steps for section 4 and 5 or you can go to each of those footers and select Link to Previous.
Let me know if this works for ya and feel free to check out these links for some more info.
