Page numbering question:
Is their a simple way to get page numbers at the bottom of the page?
Inserting a page number worked, but following pages didn't inherit
property. Do I have to create a footer and insert the page number into it?

In the definition for the Page Style in use, click on the Footer tab and put a
checkmark against Footer On. Then click in the box that appears at page bottom,
enter a tab, then /insert /Field /Page number. That presupposes you need the
page number centred, hence the tab.
Thanks, it worked correctly.
The next problem is when the document is inserted into the master,
page numbering is lost. How are page numbers enabled in master
documents?

Other than care in selecting to use the same template for all components of a
master document I can make no suggestion. I have never needed to use the
master documents structure for any of the documents I have edited/written,
irrespective of their size (sometimes several thousand pages) and have only
dabbled inconclusively with master documents.

Several times in the past, I have looked at using a master document for
a large document of mine. However, in each case there was some
difficulty I found with using a master document, that made me think it
was just too much trouble. In all of those cases, using a "flat"
document was the best choice for me.
