Default Need to create document, using Word 2003....

I work for a magazine editor and I need to create a document that will allow
me to keep the center page in the centre no matter how many pages the
magazine will have. I need a document that will allow me to insert comments
(to keep track of what has been done etc.) beside the page number. So let's
say, the magazine has 60 pages instead of 64, the document will indicate that
the centre page is now 29 and 30 instead of 31 and 32. I have tried Excel
and Word and I am just out of ideas and out of patience, I just can't figure
it out.


thanks for your help

Word isn't the best program for such a project. You need to use a Desktop
Publishing/Page Layout program in order to stipulate the number of pages &
which ones will fall where. You can then place the content where you wish.

That can't effectively be done in Word because a Word document isn't really
constructed based on pages. Content is held in paragraphs as the basic unit
which run consecutively from beginning to end of the document. Pagination
changes as the content is revised.
