Default Numbering/Paragraph Formatting

I guess sometimes your problems are best solved by yourself.

Macropod,

Thank you for the help. It's simplicity lead me to the solution
suited to what the document requires; I was simply being too
complicated... or lazy.

Instead of using Microsoft's numbering format, I simply typed out the
a.), b.), c.) part and (it took three times before it got the hint)
turned "bullets and numbering" off.

The fields still mess with the indentation of the non-field material,
but it's a much simpler fix than deleting a huge amount of numbers/
letters after the merge and adding manual line breaks. This way, it's
a matter of dragging tabs over every once in a while.

Thanks again!
