yes, I did complete the merge. As a review, i clicked on Insert, then Field,
under categories, numbering, then SEQ, then Label as identifier, then OK.
After I updated labels, I merged to a new document, went to Print Preview,
and saw that all label sheets started over 1-20. I even tried a switch \n
just for kicks.

I did the Insert, Field, {SEQ Label}, but still got labels numbered 1-20 on
each sheet of labels. What did I do wrong?

I have a file with 150 names. I would like to number each name 1- 150
automatically in a label mail merge. I go to Insert, Field, click on
numbering, then listnum, then number each label, 1-20, on the mail
merge page, then update labels. After I merge, I get each page of
labels numbered 1 - 20. Is there a way to have my labels of names
numbered 1 thru 150 without having to manually number them myself
after the merge? Thank you for any help you can give me.
