Are you using a different style for each numbering level, and did you link
each level to the corresponding style? And are you using these styles *only*
for your numbered list?

I meticulously went through and defined a list style (1 for the top level,
a.
for Level 2, ii for Level 3, etc.) using Shauna Kelly's "How to create
numbered headings or outline numbering in your Microsoft Word document."
Now
when I go to apply it, the first number in one particular list is set to
8.
I've checked, and my Level 1 is set to start at 1, and each of the lower
levels are set appropriately to restart the numbering.
I've tried changing this paragraph to Normal and then resetting it to
List,
and that didn't do anything.
Please advise. I thought by following Shauna's excellent instructions,
everything would turn out fine and I wouldn't have any more hassles.
