Hi all :)

How do I insert text in the footer for all odd pages except for the last
page, when the document is longer than one page? I looked into
inserting/manipulating autotext but can't figure out how to get the condition
above to work. Thanks for any help you can offer!

You need to set the document to have separate odd and even page headers and
footers and in the odd page footer, use an

{ IF { PAGE } <> { NUMPAGES } "Text to be inserted" "" }

field construction. Note that you must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of
field delimiters { } and you use Alt+F9 to toggle off their display.

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my
