I have a document that is over 392 pages (2000),
And Hebrew page numbering in microsoft Word 2003 does
not have the ability to go beyond 392 pages with hebew(�,ב) format
If you go beyond 392, anError message : "Error! Number cannot be represented
in specified format" is displayed where the page number would have been.
Try it by insert page numbering, and change the format to hebrew (�-ב) and
then set the starting number at 390. Then add page breaks and watch where
you inserted the page numbers.

I have seen this raised before and do not believe there is anything you can
do about it.

If you go beyond 392, anError message : "Error! Number cannot be
represented
in specified format" is displayed where the page number would have been.
Try it by insert page numbering, and change the format to hebrew (?-?) and
then set the starting number at 390. Then add page breaks and watch where
you inserted the page numbers.

If there is no solution in the near term, then I would like to do the
following. I wrote a VB function that takes a page number and converts it to
a Hebrew term (aka €˜gematria). I would like to integrate this function into
the document, in place of its default Hebrew formatted page numbering. I
understand that I may be able to do this with a macro. Can someone please
elaborate on this for me. Alternatively, I would like to know if I can
install my own custom page number formatter, similar to what can be seen in
the list a user gets after picking Insert-Field menu item, and then
selecting Page in the left-hand list.
Thank you very much,

Hi ?? ????,

I'm afraid I don't know any Hebrew at all so I'm, as it were, flying blind
here, but it roused my curiosity so I have had a play with it and have what
I believe may be a partial solution for you.

I have had to extrapolate the number sequence based on what I can see up to
392 - if there are other symbols used, this will need adjustment. Whatever,
it will only work up to 766 as is.

Instead of { Page }, try using ...

{ If { Page } 374 "{ =374 \* hebrew2 } { = ( Page } - 374 \* hebrew2 }"
{ Page \* hebrew2 } }

(all braces entered via Ctrl+F9)

and format the page number as (the default) 1,2,3,...
