MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / January 2004Page Numbering
I have a document that is 10 pages long. I want numbers to appear on all the pages, except the last page. Please help!!! A conditional field in the header/footer should work {IF {Page} < {Numpages} "{Page}" ""} or {IF {Page} < 10 "{Page}" ""}  Signature<>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>>< ><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP E-mail gmayor@mvps.org Web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site www.mvps.org/word <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>>< ><<> > I have a document that is 10 pages long.

How is a section break easier than replacing your page number field with the suggested field?

I guess I thought it would be easier for me to remember how to use a section break rather than remember how to create the field. >-----Original Message----- >How is a section break easier than replacing your page number field with the [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > >. The field is childishly simple. Use CTRL+F9 for each pair of field boundaries {} and copy the content from the original message. Press F9 to update :) The field checks the page number either is less than the total number of pages or less than 10 in the second example and if it is, it inserts the page number. If not it doesn't.

Hi Karen, > I guess I thought it would be easier for me to remember > how to use a section break rather than remember how to > create the field. if you really get the grips with section breaks, with all stuff that is a section-property in Word, you've learnt a lot more than the average Word user! [Of course, if you've managed to know "everything" about fields, that's true as well ... :-)] That said, we tend to avoid using sections when it's not really necessary: It adds up to the internal complexity of a Word document. A single field compared to a single section break, my choice would go for the field at all times. 2cents .bob ..Word-MVP Signature/"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign \ / X Against HTML / \ in e-mail & news Thanks-I'll give it a try. >-----Original Message----- >Hi Karen, [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] >..bob >...Word-MVP |
