Where's the command for a footer showing page x of y?
In Word 2003 it was an easy find.

Double-click the footer to activate it. Then insert the following: { PAGE }
of { NUMPAGES }. Note that each pair of field delimiters, { }, must be inserted with Ctrl+F9. Then type the field codes as shown above. Press F9 to update. If necessary, click Alt+F9 to show/hide field codes. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "robisongroup" wrote in message ... In Word 2003 it was an easy find. |

Is there a way to simplify this and make it a easy to find and use button on the toolbar? I use this a lot too and was frustrated to find it more difficult and complex... Thanks |

Well, I forgot to mention that you can click the Page Number button on the
Header & Footer Tools: Design ribbon tab (this tab displays when you've activated the header/footer area); you should find the Page X of Y format listed there. Alternatively, create your own AutoText, type its name and then use F3 to insert it. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Devonshire" wrote in message ...
