I have a manuscript with two leading pages that should not have footers. Then the rest of the document needs the title and page number at the foot of each page. I can do the title and page number footer just fine, but how the heck do I keep it from carrying back to the two first pages? Have tried separating the manuscript into two sections, but that did not work.
Sometimes I just want to bite Bill Gates' leg off!!

Insert a section break. Then you can apply the footers only to the sections you want.
Goodluck. As for Bill Gates, we can only hope that if he ever needs life support, it is powered by Windows 98! (life expectancy..NIL)

You can keep the footer from showing on the first page by using the page setup icon on the header/footer toolbar and selecting different first page. Not sure how to exclude the 2nd page though.

Check to see if the footers on the two leading pages are linked to those in the rest of the document. If they are, unlink them.

Go to insert - headers and footers. Customize and start at page ___ 3 or 4.

Go to:

Page numbers
uncheck start on first page.
I am using Word 2003 and did something similar last week...
Hope it helps.
