MS Office Forum / Word / Numbering / March 2004Different Section Numbering
The problem I have is that a document im working on requires the 'Page of Y' bit in the footer. However this document has sections A - Z (which are broke up wit section breaks), my problem is that each section (A - Z) may hav multiple sub-sections. Now I need to figure out how to do the 'Page X of Y' (specifically th 'Y' bit) for each section and its sub-sections. e.g. Section F (2 Pages) Sub Section F1 (1 Page) Sub Section F2 (2 Pages) Total Number of pages: 5 Footer bit Section F Page 1 of 5 Sub Section F1 Page 3 of 5 Sub Section F2 Page 4 of 5 Thanks in advance Scorpio54 If there is a better way to do this, I don't know of it. Place a bookmark on the last page of each (logical) section. For the Y, use a PageRef to that bookmark. -- Suzanne S.

[quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > ------------------------------------------------ > ~~ Message posted from http://www.WordForums.com/ Just managed to get it working. Heres what I did: in the section have a bookmark looking at a number (eg 1) calle 'Section{SectionLetter}PageNo'. in the section have a bookmark looking at a {SECTIONPAGES} field calle 'Section{SectionLetter}'. Then in the section/sub sections have a bookmark looking to a comple 'if' statement (which adds {SECTIONPAGES} to the value of the previou section/subsection{sectionletter}). In all the footers the 'Page Y' looks to th 'section{sectionletter}pageno' bookmark. A macro is then ran which loops through all sections and their su sections. In each sub/section it will look up th 'section{sectionletter}' bookmark. Then when it can find no more su sections it puts the number into the section{sectionletter}pagen bookmark. one refresh of all the documents fields and the page numbers ar displayed correct. Post here if you would like a sample template of what i did. Scorpio54 Just managed to get it working.
