need help from MS word expert

Ok so here I have to print a big number of raffle tickets.I have found templates on word but still have some problems. first theres no raffle ticket that would give me option of putting a picture/logo

and secondly how do i get to increase the ticket numbers after the first page prints. so if the last ticket on the first page says A6 how do i make the first the first ticket on the tikcet A7. Please help.

Re: need help from MS word expert

that cant be done i think.

Try a combination of an Excel table with Word or Publisher. Use Publisher anyway if you wanna change the logo and stuff.

Re: need help from MS word expert

i think you can do with VBA/macros...they are pretty powerful

I would go excel

Re: need help from MS word expert

so do I export my file to excel or make a new one in excel. am totally stuck with this number thing.
i tried opening it as an excel file but didnt work, maybe because it has all these colors and its a weird template.

Bitter: what are VBA/macros??

I have created a sample excel file with auto-incrementing number and a picture in the adjecent cell. PM me your email and I will send you that sample to get you started.

Re: need help from MS word expert

why not just make a simple program that will print with an increment everytime. TurboPascal will do the job in a few lines



printlpt(' _______________________');
printlpt('|                                              |');
printlpt('|                    'VAR'                   |');
printlpt('|_______________________|');


something like that would do the job in a for loop, obviously amrtedn the ascii art up a bit
