As Jezebel says, use the related List Continue style instead. There is one
to correspond to each of the List, List Bullet, and List Number styles.

...
In numbered lists, when I use shift-enter to create a line space between 2
paragraphs within the same number in the list, justifed text in the last
line of the paragrah above the line break, looks terrible. It justifies
2-3
words across the entire line. Word doesn't do this when I hit enter, and
move
to the next number in the sequence (it left-justifies the last line), only
when I try to add a paragraph within the number.

How can I make justification see the multiple paragraphs under a single
number in a numbered list as actuall paragraphs? i.e. NOT justify the end
of
a paragraph (instead, justifed the last line of all multiple paragraphs)

Please help
