Page Numbering with page starting at 2

W

Warren Kelley

Hello

We are trying to set up a template that will have the page number starting
at 2 we want the total pages also to start at 2. We are using Office XP.
The help gives us a syntax error when we copy it with the NUMPAGES
statement. I have gone to the MVP site and it does help but does not touch
on this subject. We have set the page Number to start at 2 but when we do
a page # of # we get page 2 of 1. I have added a +1 and a +2 to the
NUMPAGES area in fields but it is ignored.

What am I not doing? any help is greatly appreciated

Try Page {PAGE} of {=(NUMPAGES}+1)} where each { } set is
entered with CTRL+F9
