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.

You must have forgotten the trailing "\ " of "\userpagenumber\ ".

Thank you Alan. That worked. I didn't forget it; I never knew it. I'm starting to run into the area where the Wiki isn't enough, but I don't know enough TeX to read the Context source for the macros. What is recommended to get up to speed on Context? Should I go back and re-read Knuth's book on TeX then try reading ConTeXt source? Last time I read it was 20 years ago, and only got half way through; that was enough for my needs back then. I guess a week or two reading everything on this page would help too: http://www.luatex.org/documentation.html Now just need an answer for the blank page issue and I can start shipping these spreadsheets to clients.
