Number * of 150 copies in a label

[Martin ©¿©¬]

Greetings

I have to create text in150 labels and each label needs to have a line
at the bottom - Number 1 of 150, Number 2 of 150, etc, etc .....

Is it possible in word to create a numbering sequence for labels
similar to page numbering?

Yes, using SEQ fields. Bookmark the last field and use a REF field to that
bookmark as your numlabels field. (Should work, haven't tried.)

Martin,

If you know that you will have 150 labels then you can use a construction
like this:

"Number {SEQ myLables } of 150" where the field code braces { } are entered
with CTRL+F9. myLables is arbitary. You could use any unique sequence
identifier. Just copy the field and text to each lable, press CTRL+a to
select the entire document and press F9 to update the fields. If the field
code doesn't toggle to display the numbers, press ALT+F9.
