Page numbering + footer for lab report in office 2007?

In my lab report i need the page numbers to start about 5 pages from the actual first page because in lab reports I have been told to include a cover page, summary and table of contents before the page numbering. adding a footer and changing the number changes ALL the page numbers. How can I do this?Page numbering + footer for lab report in office 2007?
1. Go to the end of the last page that you do not want the numbering on.


2. Insert a section break (The Page Layout Tab, Page Layout Section - there is a little arrow next to Breaks, click it and choose Next Page in Section Breaks)


3. Go to the footer of the first page you want numbered. (This should be the page immediately after the Section Break)


4. In the Header %26amp; Footer Tools/Design Tab, In the Navigation Section, click Link to Previous (This will actually unlink this section from the previous section unless you click it again).


5. In the Header %26amp; Footer Tools/Design Tab, In the Header and Footer Section, click the arrow next to Page Number.


6. Choose the desired placement of the page number.





If you need to change the starting number...





1. Click on the arrow next to Page Number again. This time choose Format Page Numbers


2. Under Page Numbering, in the pop up, select Start at and type in the page number that you wish to be on the first page of your numbered pages.
