I'm afraid not, but thanks for taking the time to give the advice. The page numbers still act in exactly the same way.

I can't explain why updating the index would change page
numbering. Still, it's worth checking the following:
On the File menu, choose Page Setup. In the Page Setup dialog
box, click the Layout tab. Make sure that "Section start" is set
to "Next page", and that "Apply to" is set to "Whole document".
Click OK.
Now, when you set the desired starting page number, does Word
behave as expected?

tidying up the document, I go to the index, press F9 to refresh,
and the index refreshes correctly. However, if I then go back to
the first page, its page number has changed to 67. Going to the
index and pressing F9 again, produces an index that now starts
from the 'new' page 67.
