page numbering with a mail merge...

[tony]

i have a number of forms that i have set up so that the
titles in the main document and in the footer are
populated through the merge. i have changed the footer
in the merge document so that its no longer dynamic...
however i have a number of these forms, all of which are
4 pages long, and have already been filled with data
individual to the form. problem is that the page
numbering is page 1 of 80, 2 of 80... i want to change
it so that it does 1 of 4... and each part is
individually numbered. is this possible?

Display the fields in your footer. (Alt-F9)

Then change the NumPages field to a SectionPages field.
