Continuous Numbering Between Documents

I have a number of documents, each representing a different Chapter or
Appendix file.

I want to have continuous numbering between the files without having to
manually check the end of the previous file and changing the starting
number.

I have checked the article on the MVP site which linked to this page
http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister/NbrFAQ.htm#PgOverDc which talks
about inserting a bookmark and referencing the bookmark in the headers where
I display the page numbers.

My problem is that we have Endnotes at the end of each chapter and can only
make the bookmark work if it is at the end of the document but BEFORE the
endnotes which messes up the page numbering.

Is there a way to insert more text AFTER the last endnote so that I can
insert the bookmark there.  OR is there another way to achieve continuous
numbering?

Thanks for your time.

Hi sean,

This article might help - it shows how to sequentially number the pages in a
document set when you crete a Table of Contents covering the complete set.

I seem to have hit a snag.

The macro works great except I have endnotes at the end of each of the
chapter files which can add extra pages at the end of the document.
Currently the macro only counts until the end of the document where the
endnotes begin.

I'm not too familiar with the commands in Word macros.
Is there a way to modify the macro so that it counts the total pages
including all pages with endnotes in each file?

Thanks!
