You could just insert a normal left/right page and use
Autotext to automatically drop in the blank page
notice. If you don't have Autoext, you can get it as
shareware at http://www.siliconprairiesoftware.com.
You could create a "Thispageblank" master page that
contains nothing but the blank page sentence, and
manually set the master page usage. If the blank page
may come on a left-hand page or a right-hand page,
you'd probably need two "Thispageblank" masters with
the margins set to match the normal right/left pages.
If you mean some macro that will check to see if a
page is blank and insert a blank page notice where
needed, you may be able to cook up something like that
by using Framescript.
