Harold Fuchs, Many thanks for helpful advice, why couldn't I have found that...!

With thanks, Meg Parkes InsertFootersDefault and then Insert Fields. Choose Page Number. The number 1 will appear at the left end of the footer. Use normal formatting options - font, centre, bold, whatever - to format it. Of course you can also enter text before and/or after the number such as Page . If you double click immediately to the left of the page number a pane will open which lets you choose all sorts of different styles such as Roman numerals in upper or lower case and so on. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to users@openoffice.org

Just be aware that OO writer unlike MS word will not allow you to use the page number field in a formula.
