Hello esp. Hans! I told you more than once about my address book. ;-) You wrote this nice code for me, that calculates the first and last name on the page: --- \def\RegisterPageMark#1#2% #1=Class #2=Text {\iftrialtypesetting \else \doglobal\increment\MNamCounter% \textreference[#1:t:\MNamCounter]{#2}% \doifreferencefoundelse{#1:t:\MNamCounter} {\doifundefined{#1:f:\currentrealreference}% {\setxvalue{#1:f:\currentrealreference}% {\noexpand\in[#1:t:\MNamCounter]}} \setxvalue{#1:l:\currentrealreference}% {\noexpand\in[#1:t:\MNamCounter]}}% {}% \fi} \def\GetFirstOnPage#1{\getvalue{#1:f:\realfolio}} % #1=Class \def\GetLastOnPage#1{\getvalue{#1:l:\realfolio}} % #1=Class \setupheadertexts [][\GetFirstOnPage{MNam}--\GetLastOnPage{MNam}] \def\Name#1{\bf #1\RegisterPageMark{MNam}{\FirstNCharacters{4}{#1}}} --- It doesn't work with the arranging "3SIDE" or even "XY" with three pages on A4 landscape. The headers show only the dash. I can't tell how arranging is involved in this counter stuff. Is there a simple solution? Grüßlis vom Hraban! -- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/

It doesn't work with the arranging "3SIDE" or even "XY" with three pages on A4 landscape. The headers show only the dash. I can't tell how arranging is involved in this counter stuff.
Is there a simple solution?
Can you make me a small test file?
