Displaying characters depen

[Ian]

I was hoping someone might help me with the following problem

I need to be able to print particular characters on each page of a document. The character to be printed depends on the page being examined and its sequence (number) in the document., and whether it is the first page of the document, the last page, or just another standard page within the document

The number of pages in the document can vary, i.e. they are static and not pre-determined

The printed characters need to go in the same place on each page, perhaps in a text box outside of the normal body of text

I was wondering how I might do this, and whether I should approach using VBA, or if I could get away with using fields

Thanks, Ian.

Can be done with an { IF { PAGE } = 1 "A" { IF { PAGE } = { NUMPAGES } "C"
"B" } } field construction in the header or footer. That would put A on
page 1, B on all other pages except the last, on which it would put C.
