Deleting page numbers from certain pages
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
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 ...

There appears to be a field delimiter missing from Stefan's version - which
I couldn't get to work. Although not strictly necessary with fields I much prefer to use quotes to delimit the various parts of a conditional field as it makes it much easier to see what is supposed to happen. In this instance: { IF { Page } = 2 "" "{ IF { Page } = 50 "" "{ Page }" }" } will work.

Please forgive my ignorance, but where do I put this code if I want to
repress the page number? I have one page that I don't want the page number to print. thank you Pat -- Don''t take your organs to heaven, heaven knows we need them down here.

Did you use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field braces?

{ IF { PAGE } 121 { PAGE } }
Don't type the curly braces. Enter the curly braces by pressing Ctrl+F9. Patski107 wrote: So to supress page 121 { IF { Page } = 121 "" "{ Page }" } I tried this but it didn't work. |

Yes I used Ctrl+F9. do spaces matter? Should there be any?
