I want to set-up a letter that has an automatically generated serial
number on each one. How do I get Word to know what the next number in
the sequence would be? We are required to serial number our letters
for some customers - and too many cooks in the pot means the serial
numbers are getting used more than once -

So, I want to create a letter/template/something that will
automatically set the next serial number to the next letter in a
certain folder.

Can this be done?
