MS Office Forum / Word / Numbering / July 2004Page numbering (XofY)
Hello, I have a document with three sections. The first two sections have continuous page numbering with XofY format with the Y factor being the total of number of pages in the first two sections. Currently I am using the following code: {Page} of {={NumPages}-3} where the 3 is the total number of pages in the final (3rd) section of the document. Can I replace the finite "3" with some code that "reads" the number of pages in a particular section. My current code is useless if the final section of the document varies in the number of pages. Thanks One way to do this is to use a PAGEREF field referring to a bookmark on the last page of the section, but this will work only if the numbering is restarted in that section (so that the page is numbered 3 or whatever), and keeping a bookmark in any given location (without inadvertently either moving or deleting it) is no mean trick. -- Suzanne S.

A little trick here is to bookmark the Section break itself. If you delete the bookmark, you are bound to notice!
