Thank you for the response. Yes, *File>Properties>General tab>delete* did
delete the field, but it left the actual number there as text.

F9 or *Tools>update>all* did nothing to return the number to 1.   I have to
re-insert the appropriate field there manually, which seems rather a lengthy
workaround of something that I suggest should not be necessary!

Nevertheless, thanks anyway; I'll live with the workaround for now.

Howard
