\insertframenumber inserts the number of the frame (not slide), \inserttotalframenumers the overall count of frames. \insertpagenumber inserts the slide number instead (which is less useful IMO), and \insertpresentationendpage the number of slides in the presentation. The best way is to change the outer theme Warsaw is based upon, i.e. split. Have a look here for an example: http://groups.google.de/group/de.comp.text.tex/browse_thread/thread/9b852091a7e221fb/a1315c3f4e837600#a1315c3f4e837600 HTH, Jürgen > uwe
