I have a doc divided into multiple sections. For each section i want the header to show the number of pages in that section (starting from 1 in each section) + the total number of pages in the section. OK, that's easy.

BUT, I also want the footer to show consecutive numbering for the ENTIRE doc (out of total pages). It goes well in section 1 (of cause), but in section 2, it starts from 1 as in the header. Now, I changed the number to continue from last section - and it does - but i ALSO changes it in the header.

Is it possible to have both page numbers (a cannot find a function) - one consecutively counting from previous section AND one consecutively counting, but starting from 1, in each section.

It seems that "link to previous section"/"start counting from" applies to all PAGE codes in the doc, and that you cannot just highlight the specific number you want to apply one or the other on.

Any suggestions?



It would be nice if there were a PAGE_SECTION or something field code....(not to confuse with the SECTIONPAGE code!)
