increment invoice numbers in excel

[Guest]

I have just setup an 'order' template in excel and inserted a macro that
increments the number when opened.
I have tested the workbook and I now wish to reset thenumbering system back
to 0 (zero).
Can anyone advise me how I proceed.

Allan, where every you are storing the number in the macro just change it
back to to 0 there

Hi Paul
The trouble is I do not know where it is being saved.
This is the macro can you tell me where I find the place to reset the number;
With .Range("I6")
If IsEmpty(.Value) Then
nNumber = GetSetting(sAPPLICATION, sSECTION, sKEY,
nDEFAULT)
.NumberFormat = "@"
.Value = Format(nNumber, "0000")
SaveSetting sAPPLICATION, sSECTION, sKEY, nNumber + 1&
Cheers. Allan

Allen, not sure without seeing all the code but you could try to make
nNumber = 0 and see if that will work, something like this, just put in a 0
and a ' after it to comment out the rest.
nNumber = 0 'GetSetting(sAPPLICATION, sSECTION, sKEY, nDEFAULT)
run the code and see if that sets it back to 0, if so change it back like it
was and save the file
