Is there any way to change the first page number of a report to something other than page 1. I have a report that is going to be printed and incorporated into a larger WordPerfect doument and I need it to start on page 221 instead of page 1.

Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!!!!!

I don't know of an elegant solution, but here's a quick workaround. I assume you're placing the page number in the footer of the report. Use an expression like this:
="Page " & [Page]+220
to change the page number displayed so it gets 220 added to it. Your first page will then start at number 221.
