thanks for the reply , i was just thinking about deleting this request since i was trying it in the header and can get it to appear where group 16 is page 16 and group 27 is page 27 but when i go to page 16 i dont go to page 1 i go to the real page 16. Looking back at this request it is a real bad idea to mess with the page number since it will cause confusion and gaps in the page counter.
thanks again
