Page count across files and directories
I have a folder structure with many word-documents.
I would like to make a total page count of all the word-docs. Can I do that? This is to give a quick overview of the size of a complete document structure. |

Page count across files and directories
Yes, if you want to pull off a little trick...
There's a field called RD...Referenced Document...that you can use to figure out the total pages. Go to the very last page of the last document you plan to use and enter something, such as your name, and mark it as an Index Entry. Then you can use the RD fields to reference all the documents in the folder by listing each with the RD field into a bogus index page. You'd list them on a new page like this, using the names of each file... { RD One.doc } { RD Two.doc } Then insert the Index code and the page will display all index marked items. If you have more index entries than that one you just added...just look for that one, i.e., your name, and see what page it says its on. Say it says it's one page 244, that means you have 244 pages compiled from all the documents you referenced in the RD fields you inserted. Just make sure you put them in the right order so that the one you marked with your name is the very last RD *doc* listed in the group. You'll find more details on how to do this in this article...
