[Tugindia] RE: Counters

[Suresh A.L]

Dear Sir,

I am having the pages numbers indicated with alphanumeric values.

	Say Page number:  A241

I need to take only the numeric value "241" alone and asign it 
to a counter, (without including 'A') to manipulate the text. 
I have to split the text as  'A'  and  '241'. 

Do we have any solution for this?

Thanking you,

with regards
suresh

Please use these commands after \begin{document}
\setcounter{241}
\renewcommand{\thepage}{A\arabic{page}}

this will produce A241, A242 etc.
for B241,
Change A->B in renewcommand

best wishes,
