I have a long (1000+pgs) document to compose, which will consist of
front and back "pages" - which, when printed, will be flash cards;
however, I only want to number the front pages, so that each front page
will be consecutively numbered. Is there a simple way to do this
without creating a section break for each card? Thanks so much in
advance for any help!!

Hi R Pickens

Use an Odd Page Header with the following field construction in it where you
want the numbers to appear:

{ = ( { PAGE } + 1 ) / 2 }

You must use Ctrl + F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters { } and use
Alt + F9 to toggle off the field codes.

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.
Hope this helps
