Default Question for Suzanne Barnhill

Note that the correct syntax is { = ({Page} + 1)/2 }. Perhaps you left out
the equals sign?

I recently read an answer to a question where you indicated getting page
numbers on Odd pages only, and sequentially, can be done
with{({Page}+1)/2}.
I tried it in a newly created file and it worked like a charm.
A group at my company has a training guide template, and they would be
interested in employing this, but, in there template, when I edit the
field,
as you suggested, the page number disappears. Even with nothing else in
the
footer
I have tried various combintions of Different Odd/Even, Section Breaks,
etc,
and nothing else in the footer.
Can you think of anything I might look for to trouble shoot in this one
template, that is not happening with new files based upon Normal.dotx
