SectionPages field printing incorrect information
I am having difficulty getting my fields to print correctly. I am using a
"SectionPages" field. I have my print settings set to "Update fields". When I hit print preview or print all of the "SectionPages" fields update and print as "1". If I go back into the document after printing and update the field "F9" it returns to the correct number. How do I fix this??? Thanks, Bryan |

SectionPages field printing incorrect information
Hi ?B?QiBQZXRlcnM=?=,
I am having difficulty getting my fields to print correctly. I am using a "SectionPages" field. I have my print settings set to "Update fields". When I hit print preview or print all of the "SectionPages" fields update and print as "1". If I go back into the document after printing and update the field "F9" it returns to the correct number. This has been a problem with some versions of Word + certain printer drivers. "Fixes" vary. Sometimes, printing in reverse order, or with a different "background printing" option, or printing from a different view can help. I had one configuration where I had to manually (or with a macro) update then lock all the field codes in the header/Footer before printing.

Thanks,
Playing with the background printing and reverse order seems to do the trick. "Cindy M." wrote: Hi ?B?QiBQZXRlcnM=?=, I am having difficulty getting my fields to print correctly.
