Default Multi-level Outlines, Styles & Table of Contents in Word 2007

Many thanks,

I had not found the link to style box.

On the Home tab in the Paragraph group, click Multilevel List and click
Define New List Style. Then from the Format button at the button, click
Numbering. If you click the More button at the bottom you'll find the
ability to link a level of your outline to a style.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for

,I have set up Styles in previous versions of Word that contained
customised
multi level outlines which I use for report and schedule numbering ie 1.0
(level 1), 1.1 (Level 2) and a. (level 3). With this I was able to
automatically sequentially number paragraphs and generate a table of
contents
by using only levels 1 & 2 headings.
I have just purchased Word 2007 and cannot link multi level lists with
Styles only single level numbering. As a consequence, I cannot generate a
table of contents. I can create the numbering using the home home multi
level
numbering but this is not a style and the generate contents page tab
required
styles.
Why has something that was working OK been replaced with something that
does
not appear to provide the same level of functionality?
