How to insert page numbers and a table of contents using Microsoft Word 2010
To insert page numbers go to the “Insert” tab and then click “Page Number”. Here you can choose if you want to have it at the top or the bottom of the page. I prefer to have it in the bottom of the page on the right hand side. And then click to close the footer.
