Determining the Number of Pages in Your Document

Summary: If your macro needs to know how many pages are in your document, you can use the Information method to get the desired info. It just takes a single line added to your macro. (This tip works with Microsoft Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, Word 2003, and Word 2007.)

There may be times in your macros when you need to determine the number of pages in a document. The following code will tell you the number of pages in a document:

TtlPgs = Selection.Information(wdNumberOfPagesInDocument)

After executing this code, the value of TtlPgs represents the total number of physical pages in the document.

Tip #726 applies to Microsoft Word versions: 97 | 2000 | 2002 | 2003 | 2007
