Where do page margin numbers really go?

When you insert the page number in the page margin, Word 2007 inserts it into the header as a floating shape to which a page field code was added. If you try to double-click on that page number, nothing happens!

In fact, you can even try the Select Objects tool (in the Editing group in the Home tab, choose Select?Select Objects), which normally can grasp any graphic. It can’t grab it either. The reason is because it’s out of reach, located below the text in the header/footer layer.

To bring it into reach, in the Insert tab, choose Header?Edit Header. You can now click on the side page number and edit to your heart’s content.

Deleting page numbers
To delete page numbers, move to the document section that contains the numbering you want to remove. In the Insert tab, click Page Numbers?Remove Page Numbers.

Remove Page Numbers removes all page numbers from headers and footers in the current section.  It does not remove page numbers from other document sections.

Formatting page numbers
You can choose the page numbering format before or after you insert a page number. On the Insert tab, choose Page Number?Format Page Numbers, to display the Page Number Format dialog box, shown in Figure 8-20.
