Apply a numbered style, such as one from the built-in List Number
series, to all of your numbered paragraphs, and then use one of the
techniques described at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Numbering/...artMethods.htm to restart
numbering as needed.

I have many numbered lists in a Word document.
When I save the document and then open it subsequent numbered lists
pick up
numbering from the end of the previous lists.
I need to select "start numbering from beginning" in menu for all
lists to
correct this.
It is very hard to find and correct each list: I spend 30 minutes
correcting
lists each time I want to print the document. I have this problem with
different documents in different versions of MS Word (now I use MS
Office
2003 SP1).

I tried to search internet for my problem and I found many pages like
this:

This is common problem. What should I do to fix it?
