Deleting page numbers from certain pages
Spaces can matter in calculation fields but I doubt it is the problem with
this field. Try typing IF "Page" = "121" "" "Page" Then select each Page without the quotation marks and press Ctrl-F9. This creates your two Page fields. Then select the entire thing and press Ctrl-F9. This gives you the IF field. Then press F9 to update the field and change it into a page number. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Spaces can matter but shouldn't here. Keep in mind that what Word thinks is
page 121 may not agree with what you think is. -- Suzanne S.

Deleting page numbers from certain pages
Try it this way:
1. In your header/footer, press Ctrl+F9. This will insert a pair of field braces. 2. Type IF and a space. 3. Click on the "Insert Page Number" button to insert a { PAGE } field (you may see a number displayed). 4. Type with spaces before and after. 5. Type 121 and a space. 6. Click the "Insert Page Number" button again to insert another PAGE field. 7. Press F9 to update the field. You should have a page number on every page but 121. Note that 121 must be the number that Word would print on that page if it printed it. That is, the field will not work if the page is the 121st page in the document but is also page 20 of section 5, with numbering restarted in each section, so that 20 is what Word would print if it printed a page number. -- Suzanne S.

Deleting page numbers from certain pages
I can't quite understand what you're saying. What exactly should I do if I
was trying to take away the page numbers for like pages 8 and 9 or something, because I can't really understand what you're saying about conditional fields and stuff. -- charlie "Stefan Blom" wrote: One way is to use a conditional field in the footer (header). Something like this should work: { IF { PAGE } = 2 "" { IF { PAGE } = 50 "" { PAGE } } Note that each pair of field delimiters must be inserted with Ctrl+F9; you can't just type them in. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Peeter" wrote in message ... Is it possible to delete certain page numbers? I.e. How can I remove page numbers e.g. from pages 2 and 50 without deleting other? I would really appreciate if someone could help me. |

Deleting page numbers from certain pages
{ IF { PAGE } 8 { PAGE } {IF { PAGE } 9 { PAGE } "" }
will cause pages 1 through 7 and those greater than nine to be numbered. If you wanted physical page 10 to be numbered 8 with all following pages having the next sequential number, then use: { IF { PAGE } 8 { PAGE } {IF { PAGE } 9 { = { PAGE } - 2 } "" } -- Hope this helps.

I was able to get the code to work but I cannot get the desired number format
to stick, I prefer Page x of y. Any suggestions? "charlie hoying" wrote: I can't quite understand what you're saying.
