Default creating a page x of x in excel

I am using Excel as a vehicle for a company form for a number of reasons.
Due to the design and layout of the 'protected form' I cannot use the built
in page x of x in the header/footer.

The first page (i.e., worksheet) is static and has a page x of x. The
second worksheet is a continuation sheet with links from the first worksheet
also with a page x of x. This sheet can be copied (duplicated) to create
additional continuation sheets and the order from this sheet to the end could
also be changed. Is there a way this can be accomplished? Perhaps without
VB? I am familiar with, and use VB in protected Word form templates but not
how VB is called and/or used in Excel.

The page x of x on the continuation sheets needs to be able to insert the
sheet number in its correct position as well as count all the sheets in the
workbook. Is this possible to any extent?.... or do I have to instruct the
user that this information must be added manually? I have read the postings
and can't find any question like this.

Regards and thanks for any assistance.
