I have a single document and when I print 50 copies I need a new number for 
each one. So it would be 9990001 on the first and 9990050 on the last. I have 
never made a macro so I guess I'll have to look into that. Thanks for the help.

I just wanted to clarify:

You start with a document that contains the text, which is always a number, 
"9990001".

You open the document and print the document. The document prints the text 
"9990001" as part of the document, but, after print, the text reads "9990002". 
You save the document with the text 9990002.


OR

Were you hoping to print the document, request 10 copies, and have it print 
with a different number each time?

OR

You have a single document containing the same text 50 times and each copy  
contains a different number?


In my mind, I would write a macro to change the number then print the 
document (if that workflow is possible), but I write many macros!
