Hi Mark,

You can go to Insert|Header & Footer|Page Number|Bottom of Page, then scroll down to 'Page X of Y' and insert one of the pre-formatted schemes.

Personally, though, I prefer to do it by direct entry:
1. Open the footer
2. Type 'Page of'
3. Postion the cursor between 'Page' & 'of'
4. Press Ctrl-F9 to create an empty field and type 'PAGE' between the field braces, so that you end up with '{PAGE}'
5. Postion the cursor after 'of'
6. Press Ctrl-F9 to create an empty field and type 'NUMPAGES' between the field braces, so that you end up with '{NUMPAGES}'
7. Select both fields and press F9 to update.

Note: If you're using a Section break to separate the 'front matter', without page numbering, from the rest of the document, you might want to:
a. unlink the first numbered page's footer from the previous one - before starting the page numbering
b. code the second field as 'SECTIONPAGES' and
c. format the page number to start at 1, rather than the default.
