Open Office help

[Vorago]

Hello,

I'm using OO almost exclusively since MS Word kept screwing me over (This document blablabla appears to be damaged, no restoring possible, etc).

I like it, it does everything it should do, true MS Word 2007 looks nicer but that's not the point.

However, I still haven't figured out how to insert page numbers!

I go to 'Make up' (Opmaak in Dutch, right next to 'insert'), to 'Page' and then what?

Insert > Field > Page Number

The OO help wiki has extensive advice on this topic:

I've tried that as well, but it inserts the page number where my cursor is, not at the bottom of the page.

I'll look into the wiki. Thanks.

I used to use OO and MS equally until 2007, I hate the GUI on '07. Now it's pretty much OO all the time.
