Thanks Wolfgang, that works like a champ.  Now I've found the documentation for
ConTeXt in Debian, it is tucked away in
/usr/share/texmf/doc/context/documents/general/manuals directory as a pile of
PDFs.  I have some reading to do now.  Thank you everyone for your help.

Thank you Wolfgang, that worked nicely. Two artifacts I'm not sure how to address:

I did page Page X of N, but in the output, it displays like
Page 2of 3, Page 1of 3, etc. It ignores the space between the number and the word of.

Secondly, when I use the doublesided and the {singlesided,doublesided}
alternative page numbering, it rounds up to an even number of pages, even
though the last page is blank. When I just use the singlesided option I get 3 pages as expected, but it doesn't do the nice interior margins and switching sides of page numbers. Even context doesn't view the blank page at the end as
a page, because it doesn't print the header or footer on it.

Hi, I am slowly learning ConTeXt. I am generating tables and spreadsheets, and
transforming them into ConTeXt, finally got it working after a lot of
mysterious errors about missing } as macro arguments.

I have read this page carefully: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Layout

How can I alter the page number?  Is it in the header, or is it in the
topspace?

I want this to be at the top of each page of my spreadsheet:

My Spreadsheet (centered) Page 1 of 3 (right justified)

And on even pages, the other way around:

Page 2 of 3 (left justified) My Spreadsheet (centered)

What is the right way to do this? Is there an override and a blob of code I need to put into one of the boxes in the Layout?

David
