I need to print a label that has a chronological numbering format that
increases by changing the first number. EX: (it all has to be right aligned)

-11450 -11453 -11456 -11459
-11451 -11454 -11457 -11460
-11452 -11455 -11458 -11461
I goto Toos/Letters & mailings/ Envelopes & labels and choose label 5267.
Please let me know if there is a calculation or formula that I need to use to
create this so that when I am done with one set of numbers on the label all I
would have to do is change the first number and they all change instantly.
Can you help me. Thank you.

Hi Sponge,

You could use a series of SEQ fields, with the first one set to 11450 and
the '-' outside the field. See Word's on-line help for more details.

If you put the fields in a table, the sequencing goes across then down if
you put each field in its own cell, and down then across if you put all the
fields for a given column in separate paragraphs within a cell.

Cheers

Dear Macropod,

Thank you for responding to my email. I am sorry to say however that the
answer did not help me. I do not know if it is because I do not understand
the answer. I looked in to the SEQ fields which according to the info online
was under INSERT/ reference/ caption. I was not able to create what I need
for my label and am not sure if I am doing it right. If you have any other
suggestions that might help me I would ever so appreciative. Please let me
know. Thank you. Cheers.

Your truly,
Sponge

Although SEQ fields are used in captions, Insert | Reference | Caption is
not the only (or even the best) way to get a SEQ field. Use Insert | Field |
Seq or just press Ctrl+F9 to insert field braces and type Seq \identifier
between them.
