vba code for changing starting page number

[dennisv21]

I have a 2 page MPP file with a hard page break. I need to number the
first page A-7 and the second page A-8 so they show up in view and on
printed copy.

When using the footer feature, I cannot get different page numbers.
Instead the same page number appears on both pages.

When I set A-&[Page]in footer-center , I get only pages A-1 and A-2.

Does anyone have instructions to write VBA code to make this work for
me?

Thanks!

Project doesn't offer this functionality, so VBA doesn't either.

Sorry.

Hi,

You can insert any of the project summary tasks's text fields in a footer
and those can be set in VBA.

Yeah, I thought of that, but they would be the same for every page. He wants
an automatically incrementing number that doesn't start at 1.

Good thinking.
He will have to print a page, change the variable, print another page, etc.

Jan/Rod,
And that print-change-print process could be automated with VBA just
like Jan mentioned in his initial response.

Thanks John, I must have been particularly unclear when explaining this.
