:) Its not finished yet in terms of automation, but the above certainly works. 
It also provides for reversed numbering.. ie pages 0-9 can be numbered 10-1. 
This is currently inactive, for today at least.

Some questions tho.. 

Page 0-4 being numbered i-v
Page 5-9 being numbered 1-5
Page 10-14 being numbered A-E

If a page is added after page 4, should the new page 5 be in the 1st section, 
or the first in the 2nd section.. and then how should the section numbering 
change.

When a page is added within a section, say, after page 6. Should the 2nd 
section automatically be extended to be 5-10, and the 3rd be from 11-15? or 
the 2nd remain at 5-9 and the 3rd become 10-15?

regards
Craig
