Page number setup

[mattpv]

I would like to have the page # of number of pages that are in my report. I have it setup so that it does this, however I want it to start like this
"page 2 of 34" I want this to start on the 1st page though. ="Page " & [Page] & " of " & [Pages]is the string I have. Any help would be GREAT!

Hi
You will find the total number of pages in a report by using [pages] as you state in your Q.

you can use this (normally on the page footer) in your code too if you like.

Yes thank you, I am wanting page 1 to show page 2 of whatever # of pages in the report. I am wanting page 1 to start off as page 2. Page one is actually a cover page. so page one of the report will actually be page 2. Am I making any sense?

use this for the control source for the textbox

="Page " & [Page]+1 & " of " & [Pages]+1
