I need to automate my page numbering. I am using separate documents, not a
Master/Sub document format.

I came across a field commnad to automate this based on a hidden page field
bookmarked as LastPage in the previous document as follows:
{ = { PAGE } + { INCLUDETEXT "[document]" LastPage
\* CharFormat \! } }

I have placed this formula in my footer, replacing "document" with the path
for the previous doc, starting with C:/etc and ending in .doc

I keep getting a syntax error. All suggestions gratfully received...
