Creating Labels with sequential numbers
I'm wondering if there's a way to create labels that would auto number in the
following format using Word 2003: Exhibit A Page # of 20 Exhibit A Page # of 20 Where the # symbol represents an autonumber. |

Creating Labels with sequential numbers
Do you mean labels as in mailing labels, or more something like captions in
a document? For the former, you could use mail merge with an Excel spreadsheet containing a column of numbers as the data source for the latter, you could use a SEQ field Exhibit A Page { SEQ ExhA } of 20 Use Ctrl+F9 to insert the field delimiters and Alt+F9 to toggle off their display. You can copy that and paste it to where ever you want the caption to appear, Select and use F9 to update the fields or using Print Preview will do the same thing. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
