SUMMARY
In Microsoft Access reports, page numbering always starts with the
number 1. However, you may want your report to have page numbering
that starts with some number other than 1. This article describes two
methods for defining custom starting-page numbers. Both methods provide
custom page numbers; however, the second method uses Visual Basic for
applications and can therefore include error checking. This method is
more complex, but avoids the possibility that a nonnumeric value will be
entered when you are prompted for a starting number.
