Number pages consecutively for the entire letter merge document
Hello;
I have al letter that has a total of 11 pages (2 are different first pages). When I do a merge document. Why does the first letter have page 2 of 350 instead of each letter showing page 2 of 10 - 9 of 10? When I do a preveiw the data looks correct, once I click the merge to new document the numbereing is all wrong. Please help! |

Number pages consecutively for the entire letter merge document
In "Page X of Y" the Y part is a NUMPAGES field, which counts all the pages
in the document; and the merge document contains all of the pages created in the merge. If you didn't insert any section breaks into the main document, you could simply replace the NUMPAGES field with a SECTIONPAGES field. If the main document does contain section breaks, you will have to calculate the total page number. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "confused" wrote: Hello; I have al letter that has a total of 11 pages (2 are different first pages).
