I have a a multi-column report and would like to have page numbers on either side of the page. It would be printed on legal size paper and folder in half.

you can get something like this by creating a text box at the left of the page footer with control source:
="Page " & ([Page]*2)-1
and one at the right with:
="Page " & ([Page]*2)

but if you're stacking a bunch of pages together and folding and stapling the centre, it becomes a bit more complex as the first and last pages are on the same sheet etc.
if this is the case, you'll want:
="Page " & [Page]
on the left
and
="Page " & ([Pages]*2)+1-[Page]
on the right

but the report's first page data will be split across the first and last pages - isn't this a problem?

Personally, I would print the report and assemble it into a booklet on the photocopier.

Thanks Mike. The first option seems to work for me.
