Hello Aloysius, I do not think there is an easy way to do what you want. I am really surprised that MS Word offers this functionality and I wonder what happens when a section, instead of starting from a new page, starts in the middle of the page. Basically I guess that the sum of the sections page count is not equal to the total page count... strange. :-) Anyway, back to OOo, my understanding is that PageCount always returns the total number of pages in the document. Unfortunately this means that in order to achieve your desired result you will have to enter manually the number of pages of a section. Maybe you can raise a request for enhancement and ask for this feature to be introduced in the future versions of OOo: qa.openoffice.org will explain what you have to do. Cheers, Michele
