Dynamic Page Numbers

[wiginprov]

Is there a way to produce page numbers, but give users the flexibility to change them? The reports we will be producing may, or may not, be consolidated with material from other sources and consequently, the page numbering may change.

Hi,

You could create a formula, for example...

Formula PageNO:-
"Page "+numeric(pagenumber+{?startpage})

Then this can be displayed in the page footer.

Hth,

Sounds good. Will this allow the user to, say, number consecutive as pages 1, 4, 5, 8, 15, etc? I need to be able to assign any number. Forgive me, but I am waiting to get the software, and I cannot test this just yet.
