I wasn't able to find anyone with a similar problem, but I
created a document that I am using as a form. I would
like to print 50 pages of the same document with a page
number on top. Since it is only a single page, all pages
print out as 1. The only way for me to get my page numbers
to change is to change the header everytime before I
print. Is there an easier way? Does Office offer this?
Please help! Thank you.

When I try to use the serial number macro in Word2000 I get an error message:

"Invalid outside procedure" on the line that reads as follows:

Message = "Enter the number of copies that you want to print."

Since I'm new at macros in Word, any help would be appreciated.

Hi Richard,

You will need to put all of the code from that page inside a

Sub MacroName()

'put code here

End Sub

Then if you run the macro with that name, you should get what you want.

Please respond to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be
interested.

Hope this helps
