Try the attached. The code's a bit different to what I posted before, but that doesn't affect its validity - the update simply 'remembers' what the last certificate printed was for the next time you want to do a print.

Regarding running everything in 64-bit mode, Microsoft recommends not doing that with Office unless you need it for Excel. I don't know why that is - maybe they're not confident yet that everything else will work smoothly. Even so, I don't imaging there's anything about 64-bit mode that would affect the macro.

I feel like such a pain in the #$%&*().... I took your example, opened it and didn't change a thing, didn't try to copy anything etc... all I did was open it in word, then tell it to print 2 copies of it. When I did that both copies came up with it saying: "Certificate 1" it did NOT increase the number on each print!!

This is getting to be a pain in the buttt to get done!!!
