OK guys basically what I am trying to do is I have 1 page and want it to be numbered 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, 2-2, 3-1, 3-2, 4-1, 4-2 ,... for 60 sheets. This is something I do daily, so instead of going threw and making 60 sheets with different counts at the bottom I want to automate this somehow, is this possible?

You can do this quite easily, by inserting fields coded as per the following into the page footer:
{=INT(({PAGE}+1)/2) \# 0} - {=MOD({PAGE}-1,2)+1 \# 0}
then inserting 59 page breaks (e.g. via Ctrl-Enter). If you move the page content into the page header, that too will be replicated on all 60 pages.
Note: The field brace pairs (i.e. '{ }') for the above example are created in the document itself, via Ctrl-F9 (Cmd-F9 on a Mac); you can't simply type them or copy & paste them from this message. Nor is it practicable to add them via any of the standard Word dialogues.
