Jean, 

Thanks so much. I didn't know about this set of keystrokes, alt-v, h. Yes, it 
tells me if there's a page number in the header page by page. It also confirms 
that there's no page number in the footer, or so I infer, because nothing is 
verbalized there. It doesn't tell me whether the page number is at the left, 
centered or on the right, but it does rule out the footer.

This is a much better way than I'd found before of reading headers in general.

Adrian, just a thought. Since page numbers actually are in the header or 
footer, could you confirm it by viewing the header/footer dialogue with 
Alt-V-H or the Jaws insert key and the number 1 on the numbers row?

Subject: How to Confirm where page numbers appear in Word 2010?

Yesterday, I thought I'd removed page numbers from a document, but it turned 
out I hadn't. As a result, when I added page numbers in a new location, each 
page printed out with the number in the original and new location. I can't 
figure out how to determine, without sighted assistance, whether page 
numbers have stayed put in a document.

If that isn't clear, here are a few details. I've long placed page numbers 
at the bottom center of each page. However, I've been convinced to put them, 
instead, in the top right corner. I know how to perform each of these 
operations. However, I need first to ensure that the mistaken page numbers 
have been removed.

I also know how to remove page numbers. The problem here was that I didn't 
realize I first needed to uncheck the "different page" setting for the first 
page. So even though I correctly performed the operation to remove page 
numbers, it didn't take. Now I know to uncheck that different page setting 
first, but my mistake has caused confusion in several documents. I need to 
know if page numbers have been set there and, if so, where.

Any ideas?
