Nothing prevents you from doing this kind of formatting for each level
in an outline. But of course, if an even left margin is important,
then the suggested fix won't work -- unless of course each heading
number has the same width (unlikely with varying fonts, etc.), in
which case all you'd have to is add a negative left indent to all
unnumbered paragraphs (and adjust the left margin).

This would be fine if only single level numbering, but I need to do
outline
numbering, and the last line of the heading text must be underlined.
I
wanted to
create a style that would produce thus:
1. The Defendant In This Case Is Entirely Incorrect In Its
Determination
That It Could Ignore Its Responsibility To Its Clients
[underline to end of
paragraph......................................... ....................

Have you tried putting the paragraph number in the left margin?
Here's
how to do it: In the Customize Outline Numbered List dialog box,
set
the "Number position" to "Right", and specify zero for "Aligned
at"
and for the "Text position" options. (Be sure to make the
changes
via
the Modify Style dialog box.) This should work, since paragraph
borders are limited by the page margin.

I too am searching for a solution to this problem.

Hi
I have a heading style formatted to include outline

and
a
paragraph border below (like an underline). The border
begins
underneath the
numbering, but I would like it to begin where the heading
text
begins
instead. Is there anyway to achieve this without resorting
to a
font
formatting underline?
Thanks
