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.

Many thanks, now got it sorted.  I must be getting thick in my old age.
