I have a link bar based on navigation. I am using the next / back feature. Is there any way to change the labels of the buttons - they default to "Next", "Back", "Up", "Home", etc. In particular I would like to change the word "Up" to a more descriptive term, or at least to the name of the referenced page

Thank you.

That helps a lot. Thank you

Follow-up question. Changing this text here will apply to all buttons. Is there any way to use a variable so that the text on the buttons change dynamically, perhaps displaying the page name?
 
No, as the button images are created when you save the page or change the nav structure.

You might want to look into the "Shared Borders" feature
of Front Page (Format | Shared borders) and see if that
gives you what you want.

I would suggest you create a separate test web and play
around with it prior to committing your production site
over to shared borders.
