Hi Dave

The SECTIONPAGES field always shows the number of pages of the _current_ section. If you need that anywhere else, there are a couple of ways to get there I'm sure. You could bookmark a SECTIONPAGES field in the desired section and replicate it elsewhere with a cross-reference. [You can set it to white font color if you don't like to show the information in the section itself, and force a normal font color via CHARFORMAT switch to the REF field if need be.] Or you can bookmark the last character of the section and use a PAGEREF to that to get the page number (that works if the section restarts numbering at one; else you need to calculate the page number by referencing the first character of the section, too).

This only allows the number of pages in the current section to be displayed.
I have the sections listed at the beginning of a document and wanted to have the number of pages for each section automatically update. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Yes.
