Word 2003 even page only text with different first pages
How can I get text to show on only even pages when sections have a different
first page. I would prefer to not have to update the first pages each period since the lengths of the sections change each period and a first page that was even last period may be odd this period. Is there a way to do this. I can't find my original post - If this is a duplicate please accept my apologies. -- Many thanks Kate |

Word 2003 even page only text with different first pages
I don't understand the question -- you can have Section Break Even
Page, and you can have First Page Different (set in Page Setup). What isn't working right?

Word 2003 even page only text with different first pages
I have 15 sections. Each section has both different first pages and
different odd and even pages. Each quarter the first page of each section could be either odd or even. There is text that I only want to show on when the page is even including when the even page happens to be the first page of a section. I dont want to add the text to my first page footers because next period I might need to remove it if the first page becomes an odd page. If there was a way to put text only on even pages regardless of whether the even page is the first of the section where first pages are set up to be different? -- Many thanks Kate "grammatim" wrote: I don't understand the question -- you can have Section Break Even Page, and you can have First Page Different (set in Page Setup).

Word 2003 even page only text with different first pages
Yes, there is a way. You can use an IF field combined with a formula field.
It will look something like this: { IF { = MOD({ PAGE },2) } = 0 "Text you want on even pages" } The MOD(x,y) function "Returns the remainder that results from dividing the value x by the value y a whole number of times." If you divide the page number by 2 and get a zero remainder, then the page is even. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Kate" wrote in message ...
