If you look in the expression builder under common expressions, you will find that Microsoft says the correct way to print Page X of Y on a report is:

Code:
"Page " & Page & " of  " & Pages

However, the correct expression is:

Code:
="Page " & [Page] & " of " & [Pages]

Admittedly, once you paste the incorrect expression into the event where you want it and press ENTER, Access corrects itself.
