Question for Suzanne Barnhill
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 |

Question for Suzanne Barnhill
Note that the correct syntax is { = ({Page} + 1)/2 }. Perhaps you left out
the equals sign? -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "PA" wrote in message ...
