DOCUMENT:Q72767 14-NOV-2000 [word97] TITLE :WD97: Setting Sequence Numbering Using a Bookmark PRODUCT :Word 97 for Windows PROD/VER:WINDOWS:97 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbdta winword ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Word 97 for Windows ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= You can use the {SET} statement to set the sequence numbering in a {SEQ \r} statement in a Microsoft Word document. MORE INFORMATION ================ The \r switch used in a sequence field resets the sequence number to the number following the \r. You can also use a bookmark with a numeric value in this field. The SET variable is considered a bookmark after the SET field is updated. (The field can be updated by pressing F9 while the field is selected.) In the following example, the bookmark {year} is set to 1992 at the beginning of the document. The {SEQ} field starts the sequence number at {year}, which results in 1992. Note that the variable {year} becomes a bookmark that must be contained in field code brackets when used. Example Result ------- ------ {set year 1992} {SEQ yr \r{year}} 1992 {SEQ yr} 1993 {SEQ yr} 1994 Additional query words: anual sequences numerical series ====================================================================== Keywords : kbdta winword Technology : kbWordSearch kbWord97 kbWord97Search kbZNotKeyword2 Version : WINDOWS:97 Issue type : kbinfo ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
