Default numbered list formatting

Hi Suzanne, can I ask where this word.numbering newsgroup is, as I only see
the following:
General Questions, New Users, Application Errors, Drawing & Graphics,
Mailmerge & Fax, Page Layout, Programming, Tables

Thanks
DeanH

could you please give me some more details on the second option? I am

trying
to setup a style so that all paragraphs in the document are numbered in

this
fashion.

Thank you

If all the numbers will have the extra leading zeroes (that is, the

numbers
will never exceed 00099), you can just type the extra zeroes in front of

the
number field in the Customize dialog. If you need numbers 00001 to

99999,
you'll need to use a different kind of number field with a formatting
switch.

First question:

In previous versions of word there used to be quite a lot of

formatting
options for numbered lists. Not the least of those was the ability to
define
the indent of the numbers and the next line. This does not appear to

exist
in
Word 2007...am i missing something or is the setting elsewhere?

Second question:

Is it possible, in word 2007, to create a numbered list with leading

zeros
before the number?

There appears to be a built-in style which provides 1 leading zero,

but
for
my use I require 4. Any way to modify that perhaps?
Thank you
