Numbering Columns: 110, 120, 130, etc. Is This Possible?

Hi everyone.

I'm using Word 2003.

I have a table with just two columns.
Using the Format/Bullets and Numbering option, I want the rows in the
left column to be numbered as follows:

110
120
130
140
150

and so on.

Is this possible? If so, can it be done without a macro or anything
fancy? Thank you! J. Danniel

Hi Jack,

In the first cell insert a field with the code
SEQ name \r 11
Press F9 to update the field, and then type a zero after it to get the 110.

In the second cell insert a field with the code
SEQ name
Again press F9 to update the field, and then type a zero after it to get the
120.

Copy the contents of the second cell. Select the third cell through the last
cell, and paste. While all those cells are still selected, press F9 to
update them. You'll now have the numbering you want.

If you add or remove rows, you'll need to select the table and press F9
again to get all the fields to update.
