Navigating Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 Hi All I have three layouts containing a Contract. First layout contains pages 1-6, second layout contains pages 7-11 and third layout contains page 12 Question: Can I create a field that will display page numbers between the three layouts. I need the layouts to print continuously without restarting page numbers. Can this be done? I want the field to display just the page number not "Page 1 of 12" Thanks in advance for any assistance! Sheryl
-Queue- Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 Try using an unstored number calculation of 6 * (Status(CurrentLayoutName) = "second") + 11 * (Status(CurrentLayoutName) = "third") + Status(CurrentPageNumber) substituting your second and third contract layout names for "second" and "third".
Navigating Posted December 21, 2004 Author Posted December 21, 2004 Hi, I created a calculated field with the above calculation and all I get in the field is the number 1. What did I do wrong... Thanks Sheryl
-Queue- Posted December 21, 2004 Posted December 21, 2004 Is the calculation set as unstored? It should only display correctly when previewing or printing.
Navigating Posted December 22, 2004 Author Posted December 22, 2004 Hi, Thanks for helping me with this. I was able to cut the contract down to two layouts and was able to get the page numbers to print with the following... 6 * (Status(CurrentLayoutName) = "Second Layout") + 0 + Status(CurrentPageNumber) You were correct, I had not checked the item "Do not Store...". You'll notice that I changed the 11 to a 0. That was the only way to get it to work. Again thank you for helping me out. I love this place!
-Queue- Posted December 22, 2004 Posted December 22, 2004 You don't need the zero then. The 11 was part of the calculation involving the third layout, 11 * (Status(CurrentLayoutName) = "third"). You only need 6 * (Status(CurrentLayoutName) = "Second Layout") + Status(CurrentPageNumber).
