Double numbering in Word

[beginner]

Please help step by step if possible (I am a beginner)



- Header to numbered sections in the page header (1 / total number of pages ... the first section, 1 / total number of pages the other sections, ...)
- Footer, as all pages numbered in the footer (1 / total number of pages in document, 2 / the total number of pages in document ...)

my problem is when the section determine that the numbers go from 1, we are automatically in the footer to the same change, so it is not correct numbering in the footer.

Hi
Your post is not very clear. Are you able to post a copy of your document so we can see what the issue is?

It seems as if you want two page numbering sequences, one that restarts on each section and one that is continuous in the document? There is certainly no built-in way in Word, but it might be possible to use calculated (formula) fields to accomplish what you want.

I tried to do an instance but I have not worn off.
When I make a change in header disturb me in the footer
I tried the code but without success
No matter how I solved the problem, it is important to solve it

Hi
Please see attached document. I think this is what you want. Part of the problem you had was that you had linked headers between each section so it picked up the last number of the previous section and incremented it.
Let me know if this is okay.
Good luck.

Thanks for answering Tony

Your answer is not the solution to my problem
Look at the first, fourth and last page in the footer
In the FOOTER on the first page should be page number 1 / 15, on page four should be the number of page 4 / 15 on the last page should be page number 15 / 15

Please, can You create a new Word document with 3 sections, 15 pages and numbering from the beginning.
Please do not let you use my template

The HEADER should be the number the Page / Total pages in Sections
The FOOTER should be numbering Page / Total Pages in document

I can create a header, but when I create the footer I have a problem with Header, because are setting the header footer annul

EXAMPLE:
I have 3 section and 15 total pages (3+2+10=15 pages).
Section 1 = 3 pages
Section 2 = 2 pages
Section 3 = 10 pages
SUM = 15 pages

--------------------------------
The FIRST SECTION has 3 pages

The first page in the first section
Header 1 / 3
Footer 1 / 15

The second page in the first section
Header 2 / 3
Footer 2 / 15

The third page in the first section
Header 3 / 3
Footer 3 / 15
--------------------------------
The SECOND SECTION has 2 pages

The first page in second section
Header 1 / 2
Footer 4 / 15

The second page in the second section
Header 2 / 2
Footer 5 / 15
---------------------------------
The THIRD SECTION has 10 pages

The first page in the third section
Header 1 / 10
Footer 6 / 15

The second page in the third section
Header 2 / 10
Footer 7 / 15
.........
.........
The last page in the third section
Header 10 / 10
Footer 15 / 15
---------------------------------

Unlink headers and footers of each section (as has already been suggested). For each section, set page numbering to restart from 1.

In the section 1 header or footer, insert a SET field as follows:

{ SET section1count { SECTIONPAGES } }

In section 2, insert the corresponding field construct:

{ SET section2count { SECTIONPAGES } }

And similarly for each subsequent section. Use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters, { }, and type the code as shown. Press F9 to update. Alt+F9 shows/hides field codes.

To calculate total page numbers in each section, you'll need fields as follows:

Section 1: { PAGE } of { NUMPAGES }

Section 2: { = { PAGE } + { section1count } } of { NUMPAGES }

Section 3: { = { PAGE } + { section1count } + { section2count } } of { NUMPAGES }

If the number of pages changes, you can update the fields by switching to Print Preview and then back to your current view (Ctrl+F2 followed by ESC).
