I'm wanting to set up a page to show a large number of content submissions in a paged format (it's for small news articles).
e.g. I have 50 articles.
On a page I want to show 10, and have links top/bottom like "1-10 / 11-20 / 21-30 etc."
I can't see any way of doing this, as all articles just appear on the page.
I've been looking at the Views module which is incredibly flexible and gives me what I need in terms of filtering control, but how to achieve the above eludes me!

Views is definitely the way to do this-- you'll want to make a page view, specify a path, set 'use pager' to yes, and 'items to display' to whatever you like.
Excellent, hadn't spotted
Excellent, hadn't spotted that option (so many of them!).
The other thing I was trying to do (with Views) was create a block and page, having node title+date in the block, and title+date+body on the page.
Can't see a way of doing that in a single view (at the moment have two), as the Fields etc. are set at View level.

Nope, you can have both block and page views with different fields. When creating the block view and specifying your fields, you'll want to click the 'override' button in the fields config which will let you override the default fields and specify custom ones for that particular display.
Thanks for the help! Of all
Thanks for the help!
Of all the modules I've looked at for various things, Views is the most stunningly useful of the lot.
Should be core functionality!
