Hey All,

I was hoping someone could help me build a page numbering script that would allow the following numbering:
A1,B1,A2,B2,A3,B3,...

This is for a flip binder in which all top pages have a "A" designation and bottom pages have a "B" designation.

Also, how would one go about renumbering the document if the order go changed. Can you create a special type of text box or is it easier to create each new numbering on a seperate layer.

I'm on the Mac using OSX with ID 2.0.2.

Cheers and thanks in advance.

Michael Allison
