Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Karen

More complex!You need to use a calculation field with the page field.
Each section's pagination is set to continue from previous, not restart.

Assuming the only section breaks are to start a cover page...
something like: { = { Page } - { Section } }

You cannot type the braces {}.
