I need to put a sequential number on a word document, how do we configure the
SEQ field to do that?
When I try to put the SEQ field, it gives the error "Error! No sequence
specified.", how do you specifie the sequence?

Tanks for any help you can give.

Teresa,

{ SEQ mySeq } or {SEQ yourSeq } or {SEQ Thisseq } or {SEQ thatseQ } or
{SEQ Ed } or { SEQ Theresa } or { SEQ Anything }

Each SEQ field must have an "identifier" -- a sort of name, consisting of
from 1 to 40 characters, beginning with a letter and including only letters,
numbers, and underscores. All the SEQ fields that contain the same
identifier belong to the same sequence; and any SEQ field that has a
different identifier belongs to a different sequence.

For example, if you insert fields {SEQ adam} {SEQ betty} {SEQ adam} in the
document, they'll display the numbers 1 1 2 because adam is one sequence and
betty is another sequence.

If you're trying to number a series of documents, each with a unique number,
then don't use SEQ fields at all. Instead, see
