I want to add a page number in word 2010, but there are no options of varying page numbers

You can also insert a PAGE field in any location by pressing Alt+Shift+P. (I feel like we're going in circles.)

We are not going in circles. This does not work

The problem was fixed by making "C:\Users...\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks\1033"unhidden, although I didn’t delete the “Building Blocks.dotx” mentioned inhttp://www.conetrix.com/Blog/post/Fix-Missing-Insert-Page-Numbers-in-Word-2007.aspx.

But why aren't there more Page Numbers from Office.com?

Anyways, thanks for all the help.

Note: You’ve posted your question or problem in response to a question that has already been marked as “answered” by the original poster. Your computer and Word configuration is unlikely to be the same as that of the original poster. Posting this way means you may not get as good a response as you would if you started a new question.

The reason for this is that people answering these questions look for ones that haven’t already been marked as having been answered. Also, when you ask your own question you give information about the version of Word and your operating system that can make a difference in the answer. That said, see I Can't Insert a Page Number (Header/Footer/Cover Page) in Word 2007 or 2010!

I am assuming that you have display of hidden and system files turned on.

In Windows Explorer type the following into the location box at the top:

c:\Users{your username}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks\1033\

and press Enter. (substitute your user name)
