I will type in auto fill "Page X of Y" in my headers. I have a page break,
and the "X of Y" needs to be added after the first page, where the header is
different. When I close and reopen, the "Page X of Y" is reverted. It no
longer says " 1 of 3, 2 of 3, 3 of 3", it says "1 of 1, 2 of 1, 3 of 1". And
yet I have saved as the former each time. What am I doing wrong?
