Need Help With Page Numbering in MS Word 2003

[svet-am]

I'm working on a user's manual for work and the first several pages are all title pages and copyright notices. I don't want these pages to be numbered. But, I do want the pages of the actual manual text to be numbered, starting at 1.

Whenever I add page numbers it adds them to EVERY page, including the title and copyright pages. I tried messing around with "sections" but cannot get that to work properly either.

For what it's worth before folks suggest this, I need ALL of the pages (including title and copyright notices) to be in the SAME document. I can't just split them out to make things easier.

thanks for any insight that can point me in the right direction.

Using sections is the key, here's a tutorial showing how it works: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/Formatting/NumberingFrontMatter.htm
