show/hide section depending on number of pages in section
Cheers, that works a treat!

The trick for this is to to have the sections continue numbering from the
previous section, then use a little field trickery to get the page number
display as you want it for the subsequent sections --
1. Bookmark something on the first page of the section (such as the initial
heading).
2. In place of your current page numbers, use a nested field: { = {PAGE} -
{ PAGEREF [BOOKMARK] } + 1 }

Ok, i figured out why it doesn't work!
Because I have page numbers for both the sections and section 2's page
numbers start again at 1 (which is an odd number) it is not inserting the
blank page, how do I have page numbers and have it leave a blank page in
between? I'd imagine that using an even page break would mess up my page
numbers?

I did a Print Preview and it does not show a blank page before section 2,
and
it definitely does not print out like that either, and our printer does
not
have that option.
Let me make sure I am doing this correctly:
My Section 1 has 3 pages and i want section 2 to start on page 5, so at
the
end of section 1 I insert a Section Break (Odd Page)?

It doesn't show the blank page in Print layout, but it does in Print
Preview, and it will output a blank page to the printer. Unless your
printer
has a setting to ignore blank pages.

This does not work, it does update the page numbers, but does not
include
a
blank page when printing.

Check the Insert Break options: you can specify Even/Odd page
section
breaks.

any ideas on how to do this?
Our template prints double sided, however depending on
customisations,
section 1 is either 2 pages or 3 pages. If it's 3 pages then I
need to
add a
4th page (blank - and also a new section) before the printing
continues
on
to
the next section.
