An OO novice, I'm trying to page number a text document but don't want to
have the cover sheet numbered. I just can't work this out even after read
the online help :(
Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

Solution depends on whether you want the cover page counted, but not
numbered (i.e page after the cover page is page 2), or you want
numbering to start as page 1 on the page after the cover page.
If it is the latter you need put a page break as the very first thing on
the page after the cover page. You probably have this already. The with
the cursor on that position, do Format> Paragraph and select the "Text
Flow" tab. On that tab, under "Breaks", make sure "Insert" and "With
Page Style" are checked and then set "Page Number" to 1.
This is the way to explicitly set a starting page number at a particular
page.
Hope this helps

we normally bottom post here.
To insert page numbers in a document.
Step 1 > Insert >footer >Default
Step 2 in the footer type Page and a space
step 3 >Insert >Fields >Page Number
I think that is more or less what you want. I then centre the footer so
the literal page and the page number appear in the middle of the page.
Thanks
