Sally:
I know this is a Word question, but I thought I'd show you where to do it
in WordPerfect, and maybe you can find it in the same area in Word...
In WP, click File>Print>Two-Sided Printing>Print as Booklet. This will
print the entire document in the right order, so you can take it to a
printer and get a saddle-stiched booklet out of it. It does take a little
longer than normal to print, but all the pagination headache is taken care
of for you.
Good luck!
