New Page Number - Code Not Allowed In Footer |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: A customer wants to put a new page number code in a footer. After the Ctrl-B, she went into Shift-F8, 2 for Page, 6 for Page Numbering, and selected 1 for New Page Number and typed in the new number. As soon as she pressed Enter, the page numbering defaulted back to 1. Solutions: WordPerfect does not allow a new page number code in a header or footer. WordPerfect resets the New Page Number option to 1 to demonstrate that the setting will not take effect. You'll see similar results when you try to insert codes that affect the rest of the document into a substructure. WordPerfect does not allow substructures to change the state of the document. Consequently, it is required that users put such codes in the main document. A workaround for this is to put a new page number code before the header so that the header will read the new page number code without it having to be contained in the header. |
