There is a "10 stage LED sequencer" at the below address.
You will need to change the 555 oscillator into a
555 "one shot" circuit so you can use a pushbutton.

Thanks for the tip. I have used a 555 timer before, but I don't think I
ever used it as a one shot circuit, so I'd have to look that up.

The 4017 can be used for just 3 LEDs by connecting the
reset line (pin 15) to the 4th output, (pin 7).

Thanks - I think that's exactly the approach that John Fields took in his
schematic (see other posting in this thread).
