The use of OOo's styles would be a real advantage for the type of document you are working on. In simple terms, you apply one style, without page numbers, to the first 6 pages and another style, with page numbers, to the remaining pages. For more information about styles, take a look at: The user guides here: http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/index.html There are links on this page to individual chapters. and Solveig Haugland's article "Using styles in OpenOffice.org" http://searchopensource.techtarget.com/tip/0,289483,sid39_gci1230137,00.html Hope this helps.
