Default 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

Default Question for Suzanne Barnhill

Note that the correct syntax is { = ({Page} + 1)/2 }. Perhaps you left out
the equals sign?
