How do I create a label macro for "bates numbering" documents
Work at a law office and we are looking for a way to create a label macro
that will allow us to identify and number legal documents for attaching to discovery documents. In the "old" days a Bates stamping device was used but we know of a form that was created in WordPerfect so I am hoping one can be created in Word. |

How do I create a label macro for "bates numbering" documents
A Bates stamp will number anything you hit with it. I page-numbered
many 1000+ page manuscripts that way. But... From the statement that this was to "identify and number legal documents" I gathered that it was being used to put one number on each document. Maybe mascottex will come back and explain further. On Tue, 6 Apr 2010 17:12:04 -0500, "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: No, that numbers documents.

How do I create a label macro for "bates numbering" documents
In my work I deal with references to a lot of "Bates-stamped" documents; the
formatting of the numbering can be wildly original, but in general a set of documents is numbered sequentially, each page getting a different number and each number uniquely identifying a given page (the numbers aren't repeated). It appears that the more tenuous a case they have, the more attorneys try to overwhelm the other side with documents during discovery. -- Suzanne S.
