2 Diff Page numbering schemes

[That70sHeidi]

So I have this government document, where the first section(s) must have page
numbering at the bottom that relates to the headings (i.e., 2.3-18 where 2.3
is Heading 2 style and 18 is the current page of the entire document.

However, when it comes time for tables in the document, I need to maintain
the numbering at the bottom per previous sections, but ADD numbering at the
top that says "Sheet 1 of 5," that calculates the pages in the table (section
breaks before and after, used SectionPages field).

Two different sets of numbers, different formats, same page.

I have tried Seq variables, PageRef fields, but any time I change the footer
format to include the Heading, it changes my Sheet numbering to have a
Heading as well.

Tell me it can't be done.

There are three header/footers associated with each section (First Page,
Primary and Even Pages).
Insert a section break before the table and break the link between the
header of that section and the previous section. Put what you require in the
appropriate header/footers of each section.

Already have Section Breaks applied.

Header of Section 4 needs to say Sheet 1 of 8.
Footer of Section 4 needs to say 2.8-14.
On the same page.

Even with the codes I mentioned earlier, I cannot make the footer use one
form of page number without the header reflecting that. If I want the footer
to use Heading 2, then my Sheet number will use Heading 2 as well.

To get the 2.8, insert a cross-reference to the paragraph number and after
it, insert the hyphen and a { Page } field.

To get the 1 of the 1 of 8, you are going to need to insert some bookmarks
at the end of each section thenand use some field maths to subtract the
PageRef of the bookmark from a { page } field

The first part is brilliant, thank you!

The second part I need some clarification on - I didn't know you could do
"field math" and I'm not that familiar with the PageRef field. If you could
expand on that, that'd be great!

OK, I think I got the second Table section to work with the following:

(Note: Table 1 was only 1 page and did not need a sheet number, so this
formula is for Table 2)

SH. {={Page}-{PageRef Table1}} of {SectionPages}

It counts up from 1 to the final page.

But for the third Table, I can't seem to get the formula right, and I'm
getting everything from -3 of 3 to -15 of 3.

What do I change for subsequent Tables after that first formula worked so
well? I assumed you'd just add the next table's PageRef, but it doesn't seem
to work out.

I got it! I forgot to put the footer page code in, so naturally it wasn't
pulling anything to calculate with. *headdesk* I've tried it on several
tables and it works a charm, the PageRef bookmark just keeps going up a
number.

THANK YOU!
