Sequencing numbers

[spotit3]

I have produced an invoice template using Office 2011 but am completely stumped when I try to number them so that the numbers will continue in sequence for each following invoice. Can anyone help me? Thank you in anticipation.

Office is a collection of several programs, not a program on it's own and you could use Word, Excel, Access or I guess even publisher to create invoices so to answer you'll need to say which program from office you used.

Though off the top of my head I can't think of a way to auto insert sequenced numbers into anything other than access easily so I'd think you are probably going to have to use an external data source.

Thanks ChuckFickens, I used a template from Word and edited it to suit myself if that is of any help. What sort of extertnal data source do you mean. Could a novice like me use one to do it?

Would this be useful?

Thanks fot that but I need to personalise the invoice and remove a lot of the stuff which is on that one but it won't let me.

Sorry to be a pain but have investigated further and seem to have found what you advised. How do I save it as instructed please?
