This with word XP [= word 2002 I think].  I'm running, again, into a 
longstanding [I think] problem with Word and I was wondering if there are 
any fixes/workarounds/patches for it [i doubt there are patches, because 
my copy of word is fully patched]:

1) Doing section numbering in a footer, I'm trying to get "Page X of YY" 
to work, but all I get is "x of x" [that is, page 1 is "page 1 of 1", 
page 2 gets "page 2 of 2", etc].

2) I'm getting a garbage character at the end of the date [again, in the 
footer].  I have something like "last update date" [basically the date 
the file was last saved] in the footer, and what prints is something that 
looks like a "1" overprinted on the last digit of the year [and so when I 
just printed it tonight, it said "17 May 200{6/1}"  those last 
superimposed [and I think [but I'm not sure] it is a '1' -- it is 
*something* superimposed there].  I can't imagine where that's coming 
from...

I tried googling but "word bug" or "section page numbering bug" or the 
like, but I couldn't find much of anything useful.
