Default Subparagraph numbering: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and so on

You may have to click the More button in the multilevel numbering dialog box
to see all options. To learn how indentation is applied to numbering levels,
see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html.

In order to set a paragraph style as a quick style, use the Modify Style
dialog box.

Thank you very much for your help! I appreciate your quick response and
expertise. I am still having an issue with the indentation on Level 3. I
looked within the numbering options and "left" is chosen. There are no
indentations in the tabs either. Could you possibly give me a guided tour
through where I should go? Would it be easier to establish a new Level 3
Quickstyle from scratch?
Your knowledge is most appreciated and I thank you again!

No, you cannot have the numbering in a single Quick Style; numbering must
be
set up with one paragraph style for each *level* of numbering. (What you
can
do is have a so-called list style as a "wrapper" around the numbering
scheme, but note that list styles cannot be Quick Styles.)

As far as indentation is concerned, be sure to set the indentation within
the numbering options, that is, set the indentation for the list levels,
not
for individual paragraph styles; that usually does the trick (although
list
indentation should be more stable in Word 2007 than it was in earlier
versions).

Word 2007 - I wish this post had been here back in January! It took
lots
of
creative manipulation but I managed to create Styles called Level 1,
Level
2
and Level 3 with this same numbering format. They each have their own
format
specific to how we want them presented on the report. I redefined
these
Styles so they show on the top row of the Styles List. Then I saved
this
in
the Quick Style Set. The problem I am having is Level 3 in the Quick
Style
will not save the "no indent" setting. I have to reset it each time I
use
the Quick Style. Any suggestions? Also, can this numbering format be
created and incorporated into One Quick Style?

Hi, how do I cause subparagraphs to be numbered 1.1, 1.2 and so on for
subparagraphs of parargraph 1, 2.1, 2.2 for subs of paragraph 2 and so
on?

I would like them to be so numbered so that if I press tab on the
paragraph
after 2 it should be become 2.1 instead of a. as it does at the
moment. I
also want the para number to update if the main paragraph number
changes.

Many thanks.
