different page numbering in the footer of different sections
hi all,
i'm using office 2003 professional and have a question: say i have a document with 20 pages. the last 3 pages are an annex. question: how can i accomplish page numbering in the footer of the pages so that the first 17 pages show "page x from 17", and the the last 3 pages show "annex x from 3". i'm looking for a general solution i.e one that will work for any sized document. inserting a section break before the annex doesn't help much since then the footer will display "page x from 20" where i can only control the start of the page numbering in each section. any help appreciated. many thanks! scott |

You can use two sections in which you can control the start number of each
and whether the number is displayed. As for the 'of Pages' - instead of using the {NUMPAGES} field use the {SECTIONPAGES} field which reveals the total number of pages for the current section.. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Scott Steiner wrote: hi all, i'm using office 2003 professional and have a question: say i have a document with 20 pages. the last 3 pages are an annex. question: how can i accomplish page numbering in the footer of the pages so that the first 17 pages show "page x from 17", and the the last 3 pages show "annex x from 3". i'm looking for a general solution i.e one that will work for any sized document. inserting a section break before the annex doesn't help much since then the footer will display "page x from 20" where i can only control the start of the page numbering in each section. any help appreciated. many thanks! scott |

Now I have 2 sections and my footer is something like this: {PAGE} / {SECTIONPAGES} This solves the problem of the 'of Pages' part, however, I still have a problem with the 'Page' part. Say I have 5 Pages, 2 of which are an annex. Footers should display this: Page 1 of 3 Page 2 of 3 Page 3 of 3 Annex 1 of 2 Annex 2 of 2 Using {PAGE} / {SECTIONPAGES} and 2 sections displays 'Annex 4 of 2' and 'Annex 5 of 2'. Any help appreciated! |
