argggggggggggggggggg!!!! does ANYONE know how to remove the last page number from a document!???? you would think this would be easy but holy shit! I've been messing with this for an hour because my professor says it must be this way and I'm going to lose styling points that I desperately need on this.
The problem is: you can add page numbers to all the pages or remove from all the pages, but I can't just leave out the bibliography. If you manually edit any of the headers and erase the number (or change for that matter) it changes every one of the other headers to match it. The help function says click 'remove all page numbers'. I can't find anything about this online. I would just print out the bibliography as a seperate document but I have to submit it online as well.
ARGH why does Microsoft always think it knows what you want to do!!!!

Create a section break before your bibliography? IIRC header templates are per section.

Thanks but when I create a new section, while the page numbers start over, removing it from the header still deletes all the page numbers in the document:(

I don't think you can. It's not a bug. It's a feature. :mad:

I dunno if that works coz the last thing I'm going to do is install MS Office on my home PC. But you've got two possible methods to try out now.
Today must be "Sulphur uses Google to promote altruism" day or something. :laff:

Possible Workaround -
Create a separate document of your final page and print it without page numbers.

If it's any consolate, Works 2009 is even more annoying; hardly anybody can open its documents, so you have to specially save it as a 2007 Word .doc
every fricken time and its backwards-compatibility is abhorrent, and the default installed version blows 1/4 of the space on innane advertising.

Another workaround that's extremely inelegant but can be used if nothing else works: Draw a white square (without lines on the borders) and place it on top of the page number you want to hide.
Edit: wait, nm, you already found a better solution. Yay for actually reading the thread!

Ditto that, harvester. :o
