Is there anything that the user HAS to do at the beginning or end of the form? like entering the first or last field? Perhaps, you can run a check in the first field which marks all of the fields that are empty (which I suspect should be all of them). Then the last field checks again.
Or since this form is interactive, maybe add a "check my work" type of button that will cause the form to check for blank fields and alert the user.
Side note:
One of the biggest concerns I think you have is that even though you're going to highlight these blank fields, you're still asking the user to dig through 30 pages of fields to look for a page that has a blank entry. So, I recommend that whatever you do helps the user find them.
Perhaps a button could "float" on the side of the form and when the user thinks he/she is done, clicking the button causes the form to navigate to the first blank field it finds by setting the focus to that field. Of course, if some fields are allowed to be blank, then that wouldn't work. I guess the next blank field might do better in that case.
Anyway, either of these options (checking the last field or using a button) should be able to do what you're asking since the form will have completed its layout process by the time they exist.
