Just like all counters, there is a 1 argument form (which gives the current counter value) and a 2 argument form (which gives the counter value at a given CellTag). So go to the last cell of your notebook and give that a CellTag (say LastCell). Then, use CounterBox["Page", "LastCell"] in your footer. -------------------------------------------------------------- Omega Consulting "The final answer to your Mathematica needs" http://omegaconsultinggroup.com
