Page numbering formats with sections

A

Andrew Bullock

Hi,

I have 2 sections, with Page X of Y in the footers of both set up as
follows:

Page {Page} of {SectionPages}

At the start of the second section I restart the numbering from 1, so
the page numbers read as follows

Page 1 of 2
Page 2 of 2
--------
Page I of 3
Page II of 3
Page III of 3

As you can see i want the second section to use roman numerals. If
however, i change the formatting of the Y in the second section, it also
changes it in the first, so i get:



Page 1 of II
Page 2 of II
--------
Page I of III
Page II of III
Page III of III

Is there a way around this?


Thanks

Andrew

It is possible to format the page number by section independently of the
footer, so I suspect you have the section 2 footer set to Same as Previous
and that the formatting applied to the SectionPages applies throughout.
Disconnect the two footers and you should be able to format them
independently.

Ace, thanks!
