page numbering

[VLW]

I need to format two separate page numbers on a document. On the right side,
page # of (total no. of document). On the left side, page # of (total no. of
each section). I have tried formatting the right side first, then making
sections and adding page numbers for sections but the right side starts over
at 1 at each section.

Hello VLW

I need to format two separate page numbers on a document. On the right side,
page # of (total no. of document). On the left side, page # of (total no. of
each section). I have tried formatting the right side first, then making
sections and adding page numbers for sections but the right side starts over
at 1 at each section.

then you have to "tell" each section that it should not restart. The
following article might shed some light (#4)
