<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>We’re having some trouble setting up an advanced
prediction pattern for serials that have continuous numbering but change
volumes.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>For example, Science is a weekly publication that changes
volumes every twelve issues. We are on volume 325, which began July 3 with
issue number 5936 and will end with issue 5947. The next item after that would
then be volume 326, number 5948.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>There are several serials that have this volume/number
system. Other examples are The Economist and Lancet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone had any luck in setting something up like this?<o:p></o:p></p>
