Default Mail merge to directory does not reset numbering in document

Hi Millieac,

If the records are in groups of 5, you could use a formula field coded as:
{=MOD({SEQ Counter},5)+1}
To output this as plain text, simply code the field as:
{QUOTE{=MOD({SEQ Counter},5)+1}}

I created a merge document that has multilevel numbering in it. When I do a
merge to directory, every record needs to retain that numbering sequence.
However, the merged document does not reset the numbering for every record,
so instead of having 50 records with format from 1-5 for the merge fields, I
have a numbering scheme in the final document of 1-250.
