I have a document that has a cover page and a table of contents. I want the page number, starting at page 1, to begin on the first page of the actual document (bypassing the cover and TOC) page. How do I start on phycial page 5, but have it show as page 1? Thanks.

Depending on the version of Word:
When you insert the page number, click on the Foormat Page Number button on the Header and Footer toolbar and select the number you want to start with.
If you're using the Insert>Page number button on the Standardtoolbar, click on Format.
You might also want to insert Section breaks, so that numbering start where you want.
