Adding text to blank pages

[Dave]

From an ealrier post, I'd learned that:

http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/InsEvnPgEndChap.htm

could provide some details on adding text to blank pages,
however the text I have uses page numbering as section
number - page number, and has a first section in Roman
numerals. This (1st) section ends with an even page, "x",
however the function (at the http:...) still determined
it needs an even page added.

All the even numbered sections get an "even" page only
when needed. So works corretly.

All odd numbered sections get the wrong solution i.e.,
an "even" page is added when the section ends on an even
page and no "even" page is added when the section ends on
an odd page. Works backwards.

Are there any details that can be provided to id what's
missing to account for section numbers.

In WinXP, Word 2002, is there a way to provide default
text (i.e. "No text, this page." at the top and a page
number at the bottom of the page) when using insert odd
section break? This way, if there is an even number of
pages in a section, no default text appears, however for
any sections ending on an odd page and using an odd page
section break, the blank page shows the default text
instead of just a blank page.

Otherwise these "blank" pages are either just blank or
a "blank page" page needs to be inserted or removed when
text in the section changes.

Thanks, Dave.

Sometimes you have to jumpstart Word by choosing "Mirror margins" (even if
the margins will be the same on both sides) or "Different odd and even"
(even when you plan to use the same header/footer on both odd and even
pages) to clarify that you're duplexing.
