{SEQ} field runs A, B, C, ...Z, AA, BB, CC

Post by ChrisGreaves »

I've not run into this before.
I have over 26 {SEQ} fields in a document, using capital-alphabetic style numbering, and after the 26th occurrence - "Z" - the sequence continues with doubled alphabetics - AA, BB, CC - and after 52 fields, the sequence goes into triplets - AAA, BBB, CCC etc.
Has anyone a quick-fix or some undocumented switch that might generate AA, AB, AC etc?
P.S. Macropod, you should hold off for 5 minutes to give everyone else a chance :laugh:

Macropod is not a member here, but he does have a solution: Outline Numbering from Z to AA, BB, CC.
Best wishes,
Hans

Should I post this as a problem in Lounge Matters? (grin)

Hans, Thanks for the lookup. I figured he'd have solved the problem before I knew it was a problem.
