Can't get footers to hold page numbers

I have several templates that I used with footers for
Page [PAGE} of {NUMPAGES}.  No matter what corrections I
make, using the Auto Text page insertions, or manually
typing the above auto text instruction in the footer, my
pages come out reading Page 1 of 1, Page 2 of 2, Page 3
of 3, etc.  I have tried moving the Auto Text to a
different line on the footer and occasionally it will
read as it should:  Page 1 of 3, Page 2 of 3, but this is
not consistent, and is causing a lot of hand insertion,
and reprinting, and GRAY HAIR!  

I had Office 97 on my system and recently upgraded to
2000 - this is when the problem began.

Anybody have any ideas?

HELP!!!

This is a known bug. It can be worked-around. See <URL:

Okay - is this another known bug, and can I find a fix
for it?

My spell check doesn't catch mispellings in bold/caps?  
What's up with that?

Thanks for your help
