using Word field "if" for a list item?
Hi, Peter -
I'm not sure that I understand -- are you saying that I should, or
should not, re-execute? From your response, it sounds like re-
executing will mess up my numbering. If this is the case, what is the
cure?
Thanks...sorry if I'm being a bit dense on this one.

1. What if you select the document (e.g. control-A) and re-execute all the
fields (F9)?
2. Word will actually display the /current/ value of any REF field when you
re-execute it. The { = } approach only works because Word executes all the
fields sequentially from the beginnin gof the document. So at one point when
it executes { S }, it will be 1, then after the next { = } , it will be 2,
and so on. But if you actually go back and select and re-execute, that first
{ S }, it will have the same value as the last in the list.
