WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When you insert a Page Numbering Style code followed by a Page Numbering Insert code in a footer, and then generate a Table of Contents, the Page Numbering Style is ignored. If you place the Page Numbering Style in the document (as opposed to inserting it in the footer), page numbering works as documented. Solutions: The page numbering in the style doesn't work inside of the footer or header because you have to insert the page number code (^B or option 3 in the Page Numbering menu). Generally any page-oriented codes aren't allowed in headers or footers. You also have the option of putting the Page Number Style in Document Initial Codes. When this is done and you also insert the Page Number Style in the header or footer (Page Numbering option 3), indexes and tables of contents can be generated.
