= SUMMARY =

Page 208 of the “Numbering Pages” section in the “Reference to Microsoft Word” version 4.0 manual incorrectly states the following:

If you first insert automatic page numbers using the Section or Print Preview command and later insert a page number in a header or footer, Word turns off the automatic page numbering and uses the page number in the header or footer. However, if you insert a page number in a header or footer and then turn on automatic page numbering using Section or Print Preview, Word prints both page numbers.

This passage is incorrect. In both cases mentioned in the above passage, both the page numbering formats will appear. The header/footer page numbering does not override the automatic page numbering that is set using the Section or Print Preview commands.
