The problem is that you don't read the answers given already to you.
for example Rory said in one of his many answers :
One can certainly edit a style after it is used.
AND, he also said
The built in styles are usually adequate for all but the most complex
formatting, so I took his advice and was seeking information on how to
use them.
Most cases is not the same as all cases.
AND, When what I was told to do didn't work, I was trying to clarify
what needed to be done to get the correct style in the right place.
The response I was looking for was a set of instructions on how to
accomplish a simple task, not criticism for failing to master what
a novice user should be able to do in a flash.
I don't want a polished document, just a draft with a title and table of
contents. I know how powerful styles can be, but that doesn't mean is
should be difficult to set up for a simple task.
I would appreciate it, if someone who understands the underlying
structure page numbering in styles would explain how they work at the
software level.
This is a user mailing list. For an explanation of the underlying
structure you need to talk to the developers, who
by the way seldom visit this mailing list. We're happy to give advice on
a voluntary basis , but hand holding is
something different.
Starting with the template.
Does the title page need a different template without page numbering?
Title pages don't need to be different, but can be different based on
your requirements.
If not, what overrides the page number, how is it inserted, and where
does it go?
etc.
It's the results that count, not the tools you use.
To achieve perfect results you don't need a perfect application, even
with a crap package you can achieve perfect results.
