Page numbering question

[Keith Soltys]

I've run into something that's stumped me.

Our house style for our technical docs has the page numbering style Page 
x of y, where y is the total number of pages in the document. This is 
easy to do in Word. I don't like it, but I need to set up a template in 
Frame that matches the Word template we've been using.

I thought it would be easy to do in Frame, as there is a 
<$LastPageCount> variable which includes the last page number of the 
document. But, in a book with multiple files I want the last page number 
of the book. And what I'm getting is not right. For example, in chapter 
1 I get page 7 of 13, in chapter 2 I get page 18 of 26, and so on. The 
page number count is correct but the last page number is the last page 
number of the chapter file, not the book. It's only accurate for the 
last file in the book.

Does anyone know if it's possible to do this type of page numbering in 
Frame and if so, how?

Thanks
Keith
