You'll have to add the fields manually, but if you save the correctly
formatted field as an AutoText entry and use AutoComplete to insert it, this
could go pretty quickly.

Is this something you can use a SEQ field for? It won't update

Hi Suzanne,

I'm practically a newbie when it comes to MS Word (and more so with Styles
and Formatting...though I'm learning a few things thanks to your responses
:-).

I looked up SEQ in MS Help, and it led me to LISTNUM, which I think is
closer to what I'm looking for. But, I could not figure out the steps to

set
up a field/column in a table with LISTNUM or SEQ.

Will appreciate it if you can outline the steps to accomplish that.

Thanks!

-Amit

Hi,

I have created a table with 3 columns in a Word document. The first

column
is Serial Number. Is there a way to update the value of Serial Number

in
rows automatically when I add or delete a new row in/from the middle

of
the
table, instead of manually updating them?

Thanks!
