I have a simple form that I to print want multiple copies of. I have looked
at Doug Robbins macro at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/NumberCopiesOf1Doc.htm and would like to
use it. What I can't work out is how to get the same sequential number to
appear in 2 places on each copy.

e.g.
Copy 1 has: 123456 & 123456
Copy 2 has: 123457 & 123457

Set up the document with the bookmark for the first occurrence of the
number, as described in the article. Where you want the second occurrence,
insert a field

{ REF SerialNumber }

In the code, between the 'End With' and the 'ActiveDocument.Save'
statements, add the line

ActiveDocument.Fields.Update

ActiveDocument.Fields.Update
