Page X of Y def'n where Y is a total of different sections

Hi there,

Hopefully you can help me out. I have a document with multiple sections
[10]. The first section has no numbering. Numbering begins in the second
section. The Page Numbering is being placed in the Footer. The Footer in
each section is contains unique information about that section. For sections
2-7, I need to have the page numbering continuous. The page numbering being
used is X of Y, where X is the page number and Y Section Pages. Is there a
way of adding the Section Pages so I know what the total number of pages is
for the middle group of sections?

Instead of using either NumPages or SectionPages for Y, you can use a
cross-reference (PAGEREF) to the page number of the last page in the
section. In order to do this, you'll need to insert a bookmark on that page
and cross-reference the page number of that bookmark.
