Yes: o Create a table with two columns and enough rows. It doesn't seem to matter whether you create one long table and let it split over pages or just create a separate two-row table for each page - but it is probably easier to duplicate the material if you have only a single table. o Create and edit your text in one cell of the table. o Where you want your number to appear, go to Insert | Fields > | Other... | Variables. o Select "Number range" under Type, Table under Selection, and "Arabic (1 2 3)" under Format. o Press Insert. o Copy the contents of your cell. o Select the entire table. o Paste the material (once) into all cells. The inserted field should increment in each cell. I trust this helps. Brian Barker Many thanks, now got it sorted. I must be getting thick in my old age. eff
