Default Pages Count; Plan B

Sub abc()
N = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("MyPages").Value
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = _
"&""Arial Narrow,Regular""&8Page &P of " & N

End Sub


worked fine for me. The only way I could see you getting 1 of N would be
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = _
"&""Arial Narrow,Regular""&8Page &P of " & "N"

of if cell Mypages contains the Letter N.

Aw Sh--ucks

header reads "Page 1 of N"

Range(A1) count is right, tried formats general, number with zero

decimals,
and text; always diplays "{of N".
I thought the space between & and N was typo but without space it ignores
Range(A1).
Tried Dim N as Integer; got reply "this is redundant dummy" same for Dim

as
String.
Tried replacing "N" with "X" no better
Tried ""N"" got {of "N". I thought this was simple; WRONG.

I added this to Sheet1(Cover)
Range(A1) =SUM(1,'TUS 1'!A1,'TUS 2'!A1,'TUS 3'!A1,'TUS 4'!A1) '

Format
Custom ;;;
I named Sheet1,Range(A1) "MyPages"

Sheet2(TUS 1) through Sheet5(TUS4) Adjusts Range(A1) from 0 through

6 on
each Sheet depending on number of thermocouples and duration of test

..'
Format Custom ;;;

I've added this code to each sheet
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = "&""Arial Narrow,Regular""&8Page

&P of
&N" 'Page portion has always been correct.

I need your help to change "&N" (Pages) in the header formula to
"&MyPages"
' "MyPages" does not input numerical value of Sheet1,Range(A1).

If I need Const, Dim, or other code I need to know where to put it

(Module
or This Workbook) and how it must read. You have MOST helpful and I

really
appreciate your help. I think this corrects the last hiccup in this
template.

If you have suggestions to simplify the templates PLEASE clue me in.
THANKS
A TON Lou.
