Tip of the Week - Spelling out Page Numbers

Spelling Out Page Numbers

 You know how to add page numbers to your document. You would like the page numbers to be spelled out, however; for instance, "seven" instead of "7" or "fifteen" instead of "15."

When you use the various Word tools for adding page numbers to a document, those page numbers are inserting using fields. One of the great things about fields is that you can modify what they produce by using switches. Try these steps:

  1. Insert your page numbers as you normally would.

  2. Select the field that makes up the page number.

  3. Press Shift+F9 to display the field code instead of the field results.

  4. After the field code (which is more than likely the PAGE code), enter the following: \* CardText

  5. If you want the spelled-out word to use an initial capital letter (as in "Seven"), then add the following to the field code: \* Caps

  6. Press F9 to update the field code and display its results.
