Hi Johan. This was posted previously by Dave Rathbun. I’ve found it to be very handy. I do not know of a way to continue page numbers across multiple reports within the same document which I think is what you are after. But… this formula will give you a display of (for illustration) “Page 1 of 20” in report 1 of document 1 and “Page 1 of 15” on report 2 of document 1. The number of pages is report dependent.
One alternative is to use the + concatenation operator instead of the &. The & requires character strings only, the + seems to work with any data type. The following formula gives the same result as the previous:
= "Page " + Page() + " of " + NumberOfPages()
