Mastering Page Numbering in MS Access Reports

In this Microsoft Access tutorial, I'm going to teach you how to add page numbers to a report. We'll learn the basic "Page N", then "Page N of M", then I'll show you how to modify that so it's just "N/M". Then we'll learn how to hide the page numbering on the first page, which is good for a report header page, and I'll show you how to format it for double-sided printing where the odd pages are on the left and the even pages are on the right.

Blake from Frisco, Texas (a Platinum Member) asks: I'm trying to figure out how to get page numbering on my Microsoft Access reports so that it's compatible with two-sided printing, so the even page numbers are on the left, and the odd page numbers are on the right. Can you show me how to do that?
