Default Numbering

Instead of deleting it, select it and then use the Enter key. That will
replace the name with a blank paragraph mark. Obviously, you can decide
whether to delete the number or not depending on what you select.

A numbered list looks as the following:

1 Mrs Jones
2 Mrs Todd
3 Mrs Brown
4 Mrs Murphy

and I then try to delete, for example, line no 2 everything below moves up
and takes its place . I want a space left where no 2 was thus:

1 Mrs Jones
3 Mrs Brown
4 Mrs Murphy

Is this possible?
