...not directly with quark, however you can export a numbered tab delimited file from excel and import into quark linked text boxes...
...the first step is to create a numbered row in excel, copy across using the 'fill series' option...
...set up linked text boxes on a master page (four in total), big enough to hold the size of font and length of the longest number you might have...
...to link text boxes you need to use the link tool in the tools palette, the one above the broken link icon...
...the first text box needs to be linked to that link symbol on the top left of the page (click the top left link symbol then the first text box), then link the other three in the sequence you want the numbers to fall. This allows any new pages created for the numbers to flow into automatically...
...on your first page (linked to the master you have created), click in the first box and choose file > get text, then find your tab delimited text file...
...when imported each number will have a tab character after it, so choose edit > find/change and enter:
\t
...and in the change to field enter:
\c
...click on 'find next'...
...then just click 'change all' button far right of the dialog...
...this will force each number into it's own text box, once it gets to the last box quark created a new page based on the master, this continues until you run out of numbers from the excel file...
