Hint! Make sure the text object you define is large enough to
accommodate all possibilities in your sequence.
For instance, in the example above, if Jean Martin creates 100 numbered labels, when the system prints the label with the number 100, the text area may no longer be large enough for the entire text string. The text will be cut off on the printed label.
The Sequence options are:
Starting value | Enter the starting value for the sequence in |
| this field. You can enter any number, or a |
| single letter of the alphabet, but you may not |
| mix both letters and numbers in a single |
| sequence. (You may, however, enter |
| alphabetic or symbol characters if the first |
| character entered is a number: for example, |
| 1A, 2%, 3*.) The default value is 1. |
|
|
Change by | Enter the amount by which you want the |
| sequence to change on each label. A positive |
| number increases the number or letter of the |
| alphabet on the label; a negative number |
| decreases the number or letter of the |
| alphabet on the label. The default value is 1, |
| but you can use larger increments with |
| numeric sequences. |
| Note: When you use the letters of the |
| alphabet as the sequence, the only |
| valid values for this field are 1 and |
| |
