TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Maybe someone can help me. I'm using Word 97 on NT 4.0 and have come
across a minor but annoying problem. I have "page x of Y" in my footers,
but every time someone opens the document, it reverts to "1", no matter
how many pages there are. I then have to update the field.
This is new behavior. :-) Anyone else run into this problem, and is it
easily correctible? (I do have background pagination on, but not "allow
fast saves", which can cause problems sometimes.)
The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by
those who have not got it. -George Bernard Shaw
