Default Page numbering in sections

Is there any way of inserting page number of pages e.g page 1 of 6 in each
section, I keep getting the total number of pages in the document in each
section, and I just want the pages in each section to be counted seperatly,
eg 1 of 6, 1 of 10 etc

Thanks

Diane

Default Page numbering in sections

Press Alt+F9 to display field codes. Page X of Y will display as
{ PAGE } of { NUMPAGES }. Change NUMPAGES to SECTIONPAGES. Press F9 to
update the field. Then press Alt+F9 again to hide the field codes.

Is there a way to have Word default so all new sections Start at page 1?

Only in the following sense: In a template, you can set the "Start at"
number to 1 (in the Page Number Format dialog box) for each
section; as you create documents from that template, and add sections, this
setting will be used.

And for an existing document, you can set the "Start at" number in existing
sections; it will then carry over to new sections added.

Is there a way to modify the text { SECTIONPAGES } to capture the total
number of pages of all the sections that are continuously numbered?

No. For this you need to put a bookmark on the last page, then use a PAGEREF
field (instead of SECTIONPAGES) to capture that page number.
