Default Adding symbol after bullet point

I don't have any difficulty doing this. I insert § in the document, select
it and Ctrl+C to copy it, then open the Numbering dialog and use Ctrl+V to
paste it. What are you doing differently?

A "bulleted list" can have only one symbol (which could be § if desired),
but a "numbered" list can have specific text in addition to the "number,"
which can be a bullet. The trick is that you'll have to pick a "bullet"
character from the same font as the section symbol and insert it manually
(you can't, even in an outline-numbered list, select a bullet for the
"Number style" and then add text to it). The easiest way to approach this
is
to select your bullet and section symbol from the Insert | Symbol dialog
and
insert them into your document. Then copy/paste (using Ctrl+V to paste)
into
the "Number format" box.

Thank you for the hint!

However I try to copy/paste section symbol in Number format box under
Customize Outline Numbered List dialog and the system does not allow me to
paste it...

I appreciate any other ideas...
