Quark page name Question

Hello to all.

My boss just ask for a Quark Solution.

We create catalog spreads made up of 2 pages in Quark
6.52.
Theirs names are something like   SPR08_1617_MM.qxd

The 1617 stands for the page numbers used in this
spread.

By default quark names the pages 1 and 2.

We need to rename them 16 and 17.

Using the script below: it tells me "2"

tell application "QuarkXPress"
	tell document 1
		tell page 2
			get name
			--set value of name to "3"  --this doesn't work
			--set value of name to 3  --this doesn't work
                        --set name to "3"   --this
doesn't work
                        --set name to 3   --this
doesn't work
		end tell
	end tell
end tell

If I change the name using the "Section" dialog window
it gives me the new number  [ if I use 16 then  "get
name" returns "16"]

Is there a syntax that will allow me to set the page
name to a number of my choice.

I can extract the page numbers from the file name.

I really don't want to use GUI if I can help it here
:)

Thanks
Oakley
