Creating sequential serial numbers in Word 2003
XPP SP2
Office (WORD) 2003 SP2 Hello, Does anyone know if there is a way of creating sequential serial numbers in Word? What I want to do is to print a series of say 100 pages. Each page should contain 3 (eg 2001, 2002 and 2003), or more, sequential serial numbers on each page, and on the next following page would have another 3 (eg 2004, 2005 and 2006), or more, serial numbers, and so on, for the number of pages that are printed in the series. Example: Page 1 1001 1002 1003 Page 2 1004 1005 1006 Page 3 1007 1008 1009 Etc Any ideas, or solutions, to my problem would be warmly welcome. Best regards, Eric G Stockholm, Sweden |

Creating sequential serial numbers in Word 2003
Sounds to me like a "catalog" or "directory" merge using a series of numbers
in Excel would do what you want. You'd need to set it up such that only the requisite number of records was printed on each page. This might be easier with a "label" merge type, using three large "labels" per page. -- Suzanne S.

You could also use SEQ fields. The first will look like this { SEQ Serials
\r1000 } and all subsequent ones will look like this: { SEQ Serials }. 'Serials' is an arbitrary name -- use any name you like. "Eric G" wrote in message ...

Creating sequential serial numbers in Word 2003
Hi Jezebel
I need to print a one-page document 500 times, and number them 1-500. Is there an idiot's guide to setting up this type of task? Many thanks John "Jezebel" wrote: You could also use SEQ fields.
