I followed SB's instructions below for an alternative last-page footer
(2/4/05): The result is a new last-page footer, but the footers on all the
previous pages have been deleted. Can somebody please tell me how to retain
all the footers (in text), except for the last page (where I don't want a
footer at all)?

Alternative footers require an IF field, which has this syntax:

{ IF Expression1 Operator Expression2 TrueText FalseText }

If your last page footer is the TrueText, then the footer for every other
page should be the FalseText and vice versa.

For example, you might have this field:

{ IF { PAGE } = { NUMPAGES } "Footer you want on the last page" "Footer you
want on the other pages" }

It sounds as if your IF field does not include the previous footer as either
the TrueText or the FalseText.
