page numbers for instances in repeat reg

I've got a multi-page drawing showing dimensioned views for all the instances of one, big family table. One to two instances per page. (The parts were too complicated to list all the dimensions for each instance in a table.) At this moment, the table/ repeat region only shows the instance name and its description. Now, how do I get the table to also show what page the instance is shown on? And, if this helps, ever view for each instance is called "new_view_9". I was hoping this would somehow simplify things, but I haven't been able to figure it out yet. I don't have much hair left to pull out.

Oh, and I'm using ProE 2001. But I'm guessing if anyone has figured out how to do this in Wildfire, your information could help me a lot.
 
You can add a blank column and set it to be a comment and use that to show the page number. This would not be parametric, but would be better than nothing.
 
Yeah, that's close to what we've been doing (doing it manually). We, instead, add the sheet number to the family table, where we can use Excel to quickly generate or regenerate the numbers. Just room for error when things change or get rearranged.
