Help Urgent! Please help me. Thank You!

Hi,
Does anyone how to generate a sequential number. the number generated must be 6 digits.
Example 100000 follow by 100 001. I need the code
badly. Thank You

Just for clear understandings, you want to start with the number 100000 and end with 999999? And what do you want to do with it?

Code:

---

'you now have an array holding the generated
'numbers 100001 to 150001

Private Sub Command3_Click()
    Dim x As Long
    x = 100000
    Dim y(100000 To 150000)
   
    For x = x To 150000
    y(x) = x
    List1.AddItem y(x)
    Next x
End Sub

I need that for adding to the file name. For instance,
the file name is WATER. Then after generating the number The new fileName is WATER121111. Thank You for you help Quintonir and HeSaidJoe !

'here is something to play with.

'you will need to do some err handling on this and I assume it works
'as I used it in some prior app and just flipped it a little for your use
'you can adjust the number of digits to reflect your needs.
