[geeks] open office writer and database merge

I have a single page document which is laid out with database fields,
kind of like a report if you will. I can display stuff like I want on
the page, and move to next record etc. The only thing I've never
figured out is how do you have a "Page bleh of blah". I've inserted
the fields, but once I hit print, it asks if it is a merge, to which I
say yes, and then it prints, but on all the pages it prints page 1 of
1.

I'm sure there's a way. If I find a solution to this, I'd like to add
a letter to each page (ie, page 1 = A, page 2 = B etc).

Open to any suggestions.

Francois
