That's because the second field you want is called NumPages.

I read some other threads about this, but can't quite get what I want.
I would like to write a formula that essentially says:
Page -1 of Pages -1 where a value of one is subtracted from each of the
built-in fields.
I typed this and could get the Page part to work, but could never get the
Pages part to work.
{ = { PAGE } -1 } of { = { PAGES } -1 }
Thanks in advance!
Seth
