Default if not working in footer

Bravo, macropod - your solution worked!

Thanks to all who responded.....and just so you know, dropping the 's' was a
typo on my part. I use the Quick Parts menu to insert fields so I know for
certain it has the correct syntax/spelling, etc.

Hi mdullni1,

Try coding your footer field as:
{={SECTIONPAGES}-{PAGE} \# "'Continued Next Page';;"}

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste
them from this message. You may also have to do a print preview (or printout) of the merged output document before the 'Continued
Next Page' message appears.

Hi,

Thanks.
