873625 2010-04-06 08:33:00 Hi Folks. Preparing a set of letters to club members using mail merge in 2007. All regular, clean and simple. However, I now need to number each of the seperate letters in sequence - sort of like a brief invoice number on each. Any practical ideas on how to do this during the preparation rather than numbering each manually? Thanks. Scouse (83)
873626 2010-04-06 08:38:00 So what are you using for the source data? If an Excel Spreadsheet print the record number on each letter. Sweep (90)

When you merge to a file you will see the numbers increment for each one

Sweep - using a simple Word table as a database.

Parry - perfect. Works like a bought one.

Much appreciated.
