Hi,

See the section "Displaying Page Numbers after an Introductory Section" on
my Web page at http://www.makeofficework.com/showing_page_numbers.htm .

Since there are several sections in the document, you will have to perform a
calculation to find out the desired page count.

For example, if you want to count the number of pages in a document minus
that of the first section, you can do this: In the header of section 1,
insert a SET field as follows:

{ SET section1count { SECTIONPAGES } }

Then, for Page X of Y, replace the NUMPAGES field with the following
construct:

{ = { NUMPAGES } - { REF section1count } }

To insert each pair of field delimiters, { }, use Ctrl+F9. Use Alt+F9 to
show/hide field codes. Press F9 to update the selected fields.
