Default Word 2007 - List Number Style

I'm not sure and I don't have Word 2003 around at the moment , so I have no
way to investigate. I agree that it seems wrong from your description. I
believe that List Styles are stored in the registry for Office 2003, so I
wonder if the Word Data Key is corrupt. You could try deleting the Word Data
Key: Word will regenerate a new key when you restart it.

Yes, your workaround worked ok. However, where is the 2003 Customize
dialog? And why, even in my Heading styles, does the Define New
Multilevel List display NONE. I should see the my multilevel list for my
Heading styles. My simple problem with the List Number has led me to
another problem with the Heading styles.

Workaround: double-click the number to highlight it. Change the indent on
the ruler using the mouse to drag the markers. When the indent/alignment
is correct, right-click on the style and choose 'Update XXX style to
match the selection'.

Using word 2007, the Numbering dialog doesn't have an option to change
the hanging indent. It only gives me Number Format and Alignment.
Actually, it says NONE when I modify the List Number style, but even if
I change it to another scheme, there's no way to change the Indent.
Thanks for your help in this problem.

Are you making sure that you change the indent in the Numbering dialog
rather than Paragraph? Numbering trumps Paragraph when it comes to
left,
first-line, and hanging indents.

Word 2007 - I have problems changing the .25 hanging indent on List
Number
styles to .5 hanging indent. However I modify the style, it always
goes
back to .25 again. I tried removing the tabs to prevent it, and it
still
goes back to .25 hanging. How can I permanently make List Number
style
hang
at .5?

Thanks
