Number words instead of numerals as page numbers
Hello,
Word 2003 In the footer, I need the page numbering to be as follows: "Page One of Document," "Page Two of Document," etc., not "Page 1 of Document," "Page 2 of Document," etc. I tried inserting the NUMWORDS field for the page number, but am unable to get it to start at "one." Can you please help me? Many thanks. Eless |

Number words instead of numerals as page numbers
I just realized NUMWORDS gives the number of WORDS in a document.
Having just identified myself as a real stupe, I'm wondering if anyone would still answer my initial question: How can I have page numbers spelled out as words? Any help would be much appreciated.

Although this is not an option in the Format Page Number dialog, you can
apply this formatting manually. 1. View | Header and Footer. This opens the header pane. If your page number is in the footer, click the Switch Between Header and Footer button on the Header and Footer toolbar to get to the footer pane. 2. Press Alt+F9 to view the PAGE field code. 3. After PAGE type \*CardText \*FirstCap 4. Press Alt+F9 again to toggle back to view of the field result.

Number words instead of numerals as page numbers
Thank you. That was just what I was looking for! Works beautifully.
By the way, the Help topic "Format (\*) field switch" does not give a list of the switches that can be used with this field code. (This topic was actually the first place I looked before posting.) Is there some way to see a list of switches for each field code? Many thanks, Eless "Suzanne S.

I see the list of switches now! Sorry! (I had been looking under "PAGE [\*
Format Switch]," in which it does not give a list. It just gives a link to Switches, then that just gives "\* Format Switch" without a list. Any way, thank you VERY much again! Eless "Suzanne S.

I see what you mean. You'd think they could at least make "\* Format Switch"

You will find a lot more about the use of switches - including a reference
