Answer 1

Those are crutches.

You might as well learn the fields.

Page and NumPage.

For the page number, type the word "Page" and for total pages, type the word "NumPages."

Select one of these words and press Ctrl+F9 followed by F9. Do the same with the other.

You may have to also press the Fn key on many computers.
