Printing Pages from Sections (Word XP)

Topic

I saw the following in the latest Office Watch – #10.15 …

5. SECTION PRINTING
You can print whole sections of a document if you have inserted section breaks, naturally.

s7 will print only section 7

s5-s7 will print from section 5 to section 7 inclusive

s5p4-s5p7  prints section 5 pages 4 to 7 inclusive

s5p4-s6p8 prints from section 5 page 4 to section 6 page 8

I don’t want to throw stones but I couldn’t get “s5p4-s5p7” to work for me. However, after a quick search on the lounge, I found “p4s5-p7s5” that appears to work. Did OW have it wrong?

Yes I think it was wrong. I wondered when I read that OW whether it was the wrong way round but didn’t have time to check there and then. MIcrosoft’s Help and Support pages certainly have you putting the page number before the section number.
