"Page X of N" where "N" is Total of Multiple Sections

I have a five-section document. In my "Page X of N" string I want "N" to be the total of sections 3 through 5. How do I do this?
Answer
Answer
Are the sections continuously numbered, or is numbering restarted in each section? The latter would seem illogical; in the case of the former, instead of the NUMPAGES field for N, you can use a PAGEREF field referring to a bookmark on the last page of section 5.
