Help with Open Office-page numbers

edited March 2010 in - Writing Problems
I am now using open office with my new lap top and am trying to get used to it. I want to insert page numbers continuously in my book, but can't see how to do this.
Before I just pressed insert then got a box with page number position and clicked on that and it was done.
I think I need to use fields on here, but when I click on page I just get one numbered page. Can anyone help please?

  • Is it Insert > Fields > Page Number that's not working?

    Have you turned on headers and/or footers for the document?
    If not Format > Page, click Headers, and select the checkbox to turn them on. Do the same with the Footers tab

    Not sure if you already know all this though, apologies if you do.
  • Ah didn't have the footer on. Done it now thanks BR!
  • No problem
