Assuming that you want a "real" page number of 0 to show up on the
first page:  use the Section command (in the FORMAT menu) to create 2
sections in your document.  You won't be able to use the Page Number
features for the first section.  Just hard code a "0" in headers and
footers for this section.

In section 2 you check the "Restart at 1" box using the Section
command again.  You can now use the Page Number methods for headers
and footers.
