Hi Joseph,

And whether Tab (or Shift+Tab) change the style depends on the setting =
"Tools AutoCorrect Options AutoFormat as you type Set left and =
first line indent for tab and backspace" (or something like that... =
could never make too much sense of that option's text).

You might try Alt+Shift+Left, Alt+Shift+Right (OutlineDemote, =
OutlinePromote), which work a bit more reliable and independently of the =
setting mentioned above.

Regards,
Klaus

I read Ms. Kelly's fine article on the perils of Outline Numbering. I =

never run into many problems, but then again, I have used Outline =
numbering
only for simple rough outlines for other things, nothing too involved. =
But
I am having the most annoying problem. In Word 2000 I can set up OL
numbering in the desired format. When I press Enter I go to the next
numbered level corresponding with the level I just completed. To =

further and go to a lower heading/numbering level I press tab and =
bingo,
what might have been IV is now, say, A, B. C etc. (I am reluctant to =

through her recommended procedure for OL numbering since I already use
Heading styles for ordinary, well, headings--free of any numbering, =
and I'd
sort of like to keep it that way). Same thing with Word 2003.

Here is the problem: In Word 2002, the tab works differently. When I =
press
tab at the next level I get an indent alright, but no change in the
numbering! I can't see any difference in the OL numbering settings =

Word 2000 and 2002 Is it me? Am I missing something? Or is it the =

of that demon Outline Numbering?
