I want to set up page numbering for double sided printing?

[Regimac]

I want to set up my pages so that when I print double sided I get the same
page number on the front and back of the page.

For example:
Side one of page one will say: 1A
Side two of page one will say: 1B
Side one of page two will say: 2A
Side two of page two will say: 2B
ect.....

On the Layout tab of the Page Setup dialog, check the box for the Different
Odd and Even Headers and Footers and then in the header/footers insert the
following field constructions:

For the odd pages:

{ = { PAGE } / 2 + .5 }A

For the even pages

{ = { PAGE } / 2 }B

You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters{ } and have a
space either side of each of the arithmetic symbols =, / and +

That makes perfect sense, but the keep getting 'syntax error' whenever I try
it or any similar combination.
