Kinda Newbyish:
I want to have [page# of totalpages#] in doc body footers,
but I have appendix pages that I do not want to sum into
totalpages#. How might this be done.
Thanks pre-emptively

Normally, the [page# of totalpages#] is created with two fields, {PAGE} and
{NUMPAGES}. If all of the document except the appendix is in one section,
you can replace the {NUMPAGES} field with a {SECTIONPAGES} field.

If that doesn't work for you, put a bookmark on the last page before the
appendix, and then replace the {NUMPAGES} field with a {PAGEREF "name"}
field, where "name" is the name of the bookmark.
