Microsoft Word 2007 File Formats
Microsoft Word 2007 is capable of working with documents in three file formats. The native format uses the file extension ".docx". Files saved in this format can use the full range of features found in Word 2007, with the exception of macros. Any Word 2007 document which contains macros must be saved in a separate file format using the file extension ".docm".
In addition to these two native formats, Word 2007 is also capable of both opening and creating documents using the ".doc" file extension, the file extension found in previous versions of Word. Word 2007 files saved with this file extension will not have access to the full range of features found with in Word 2007. Features which have been introduced in 2007, such as Themes, will not be available in documents saved with the file extension ".doc".

If you are working on a multi-paged document then you most likely don’t want to number your cover and your index pages. There are two ways to stop this so you’ll be continuing the numbering on any page that you want.
We’ll continue from the moment that we created the numbering in your document.
