The only work-around that I know is adding a blank, un-numbered paragraph
after the column break, but I don't recommend making use of blank
paragraphs. I'd much rather live with the annoying side-effect that you
described. :-)

When I create a two column instructional series of steps with a custom
number
set (based on Heading 2) the Document Map fails to display the Numbering
item
from the first item after a column break.

For Example:

Slide 01: Text
Slide 02: Text
Slide 03: Text
Column Break
Slide 04: Text
Slide 05: Text

In the Document Map "Slide 04: Text" shows up as just "Text" without the
custom number formatting. The custom number formatting shows up on the
document and continues to work properly in that respect. All the other
Heading 2s show up as "Slide ##: Text" in the Document Map.

I've tried putting a normal text column before the break, putting the
break
in different spots, and various other solutions with no luck. I'm using
Word
2003.

This is not an end of the world issue but it is annoying.

Does anyone have any thoughts?
