Hi everyone,
I'm accustomed to add page numbers to my "Word" documents.
I tried to add "page numbers" from "Insert" menu item + "page number" but the "page number" menu item is dimmed and i cant do that.
I use to make a "new page entry" pressing "shift+enter" keys but it is not working.
I have a "contnts" page where i add items using "Insert" menu item + "reference" + "table of contents". At that page i press "ctrl+click" to jump into that item. This is not working either.
Can anyone identify my problem ? What has gone wrong ?
Thanks
 
Hi there,

Where exactly is your cursor when you try to insert a page number?

New page is Ctrl+Enter, Shift+Enter = soft return.

Concerning the TOC, are you sure that your headings are styled properly?

Me!
 
Hi 25061959
Thanks for trying to help.
I finally found the source of my problem and it lays in the sort of "layout". Somehow, for a reason i dont know, the: view became "web layout". When it is on "normal" or "print layout" everything works fine. When it is on "Web layout" all i described happens.
