Default How to make custom multilists I create advance automatically?

That's the one I was thinking of. It also states the problem was corrected
in Office 2000 SR-1/SR-1a but I'm fairly certain I've seen List Template
error reports for Word 2002.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email cannot be acknowledged.

No, I'm not sure of the number, either. The following KB article does
state
that if the number of list templates is 1500 or more, the document
"contains
excessive list templates."

I didn't hear 1500, but I have heard they are deleted. However I'm not
certain it actually works. I would want to see is the number of list
templates either decrease or stay the same to know for sure.

I tried adding them in increments of 500 and Word kept hanging on the
third cycle. Perhaps I'll try smaller increments when I have the time to
click the Run button a bunch of times. grin

I was referring to getting rid of the list templates from the document.

I don't remember who said that recent Word versions should automatically
delete un-used list templates when they exceed a certain number (I think
it
was 1500), but I probably picked it up in the newsgroups. :-) Clearly,
nothing happens if you add them via this simple code:

ActiveDocument.ListTemplates.Add OutlineNumbered:=True
