This is from the OO help:
The following routine returns the current insertion points location on a page 
in terms of lines and characters. The number of characters is meaningless if 
the insertion point is in a table.

Hello,  

in a OO-Writer document, how can I display the current column number  
(rather than the page number!) in the footing?  

I am using Apache OpenOffice 4.1.10, AOO4110m2(Build:9807).  

Perhaps I could use a formula like “currentpage+previouspage”  
(in a 2-column document), but then I do not know how to denote  
the current page number in a formula. (No luck with the OO help  
files.)  

Thanks in advance for any hints,  
Otto Stolz
