Page numbers with multiple sections
I would like to have this string in a document footer:
Page ss.nn of mm where ss = section number nn = page number within the section mm = number of pages in the section If that is not possible or straightforward, then as close as I can get. -- Running Word 2000 SP-3 on Windows 2000 |

Assuming you're restarting numbering in each section, you need this field

I think I found the answer. The article by Bill Coan was very helpful, see: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/numbering/PageNumbering.htm. The secret is to use the format page number icon on the header/footer toolbar, not the Insert Page Number menu option. I also found the Section number field. Of course it was NOT in the document properties list. -- Running Word 2000 SP-3 on Windows 2000 |
