Do not do this in visio
Selecting all of the objects on a page (say, maybe 20-30) and then defining a new custom field with the value "=pagenumber()" seems to cause Visio to crash in little bits of Microsoft gorp.
It's most unfortunate to do this after editing the diagram for an hour.
I am now going to walk the dog.
For the rest of the weekend.
