Customize page numbers in an Access Report

[Daisy]

I'm designing a small organization's database that prints out a Handbook.
Section 4 of the Handbook is a list of members, and the section begins with
page 45 thru 82. How can I begin the page numbering with 45 instead of using
the [Page] function which begins with 1?

Thank you for any suggestions. I am new to this discussion group.

How about:
=[Page] + 44 & " of " & [Pages] + 44

It is possible to assign a value to the report's Page property when the
report opens.

If you want something more, see:
