Default Mail Merge Number Sequencing

I figured out a fix based on your article on the mailmerge. I just basically
merge the doc twice, saving it each time and using different sources each
time. Works...

Thanks,

Alison

Maybe you should be using the technique in the article "Creating
sequentially numbered documents (such as invoices)" at:

Is it possible to force the merge sequencing to start at a number
different
from 1? For example for various memos we do at work, they begin with 1 at
the beginning of the year, and each note gets the next number. So if I
want
to merge a bunch of notes to various offices, I'd like to start with the
next
number in our note system, which could be 21, for example. Is there a way
to
tell the merge to start at 21, for example? So far I've only been able to
get mergerec to start at 1. Thanks for your advice.
