Use the following field construction

{ = { SECTION } - 1 } - { PAGE }

You must use Ctrl+F9 for each pair of field delimiters.

I've created an employee handbook. The first section is the table of
contents and in the footer I want is Roman numerals to indicate the number
of
pages i.e. i., ii, iii. Then each section of the handbook should have the
section number and page number on it, i.e. I-1. I-2 I've tried inserting
the
field code but it starts counting with the that section number which is
off
because the first section it the TOC. How do I change the section numbers
to
coincide with the section of the table of contents?
