Default Skip Numbering

I see your point, but since I often need to use as much as nine different
types of List Numbers and List Bullets styles, the 'Skip Numbering' command
comes in very handy. Otherwise I would have to create different un-numbered
or un-bulleted paragraph styles (of different indentations).

This would then make my templates cumbersome for me and difficult to
comprehend for co-workers who may need to use my templates.

Ultimately, I would expect the command to work if it is included in the
package.

Thanks

Paul

The way it's evidently supposed to work is to create a numbered item without
a number. I find this anomalous and confusing. Given that Word has provided
the List Continue set of styles to coordinate with the List, List Number,
and List Bullet styles, I feel it is preferable to use these (or Body Text,
as required) instead of just removing the number from a "numbered" style.

If you want to skip numbering, the easiest way is to apply a style which
is not numbered. For example, you can press Ctrl+Shift+N to apply the
Normal style.

FWIW, I don't know how the Skip Numbering command is supposed to work; as
you've noticed, it doesn't seem to work at all.

In my Word 2007 the Skip Numbering command (I have included the
corresponding
green button in the QAT) does not work. Is this a problem with Word 2007?
