RE: Page numbers

Hi Tess, Thank you for your post, In answer, to enter the text Page Number before the entry x of y you can type the word "Number" into your autotext entry. Follow these steps:
Menu command View, Header and Footer, place your insertion point at the position you wish to have your page number entries, select the option Insert Auto Text, on the drop down you will see the entry Page x of y, click this option, when the entry is placed in your document, click at between the word Page and the number 1 and enter your text, in this case the word number; the word will now appear on each page. I hope that helps, best regards Pete.

Word tip:

Assign shortcut keys to styles

If you're a fan of using styles, you can create your own shortcut keys to apply styles quickly.

Go to Tools - Customise, then to the Options tab. Click on the Keyboard button on this tab.

Scroll down the list displayed on the left, until you see Styles. Click on Styles to select it, then you will see a list of styles currently available for use on the right.

If a style you wish to assign a shortcut key to does not appear in the list on the right, close out of the dialogue box, apply the style, then follow the steps above again - you should then see the style listed.

Enter your shortcut key combination in the 'Press new shortcut key' box. If the shortcut keys selected are already assigned to another function in Word, it will be displayed in the box.

If you want to overwrite the existing function for the shortcut keys you have chosen, click Assign.

If you wish to assign a unique set of shortcut keys, use Backspace to remove the shortcut keys you have typed in; then try typing in another key combination. Click Assign when you have a key combination you are happy with.
