Default Slide numbering

I'm obviously doing something wrong. IFrom the Slide Master, I'm trying to
number slides, leaving the Title Slide un-numbered. The problem is that I'm
not getting numbers on any slides. Please let m know how to accomplish my
goal. Thanks!

There are probably lots of ways to accomplish this. The easiest way is to
go to the View menu and choose Header and Footer. Check the box to show the
Slide Number and check the box for Don't Show on Title Slide. Click Apply
to All.

Click View Master Slide Master.
Click Format Master Layout.
Check to see if the Slide Number has been unchecked. If so, check it and
click ok.

If the slide number is checked, see if there are any pictures or objects
covering the Number Area placeholder.

I might have misunderstood your post. If what you want is to number your
slide, follow what John and David has said. If you have problem getting the
slide number after trying the method, then follow what I have posted.
