Hi Scott, I would do it with automatic numbering. If necessary in a separate text frame. Restart the autonumbering of p e.g. with a separate paragraph; this could be the title paragraph of a new part. Continue the autonumbering for b throughout all files in the book (or just use the page number variable).
