If all numbering belongs to one and the same outline-numbered list, a
LISTNUM field (without a list name) should work. For example:
1 Heading 1
Some text here
1.1 Heading 2
Ordinary text. { LISTNUM \l 3 }
would display as:
1 Heading 1
Some text here
1.1 Heading 2
Ordinary text. 1.1.1
You can insert the field and specify its level via Insert | Field (Word
2003) or Insert tab | Quick Parts | Field (Word 2007).
To change the level of an existing field, you can right-click it and choose
Increase Indent (or Decrease Indent) from the context menu.
To show/hide field codes, use Alt+F9.

I don't think that would work because I need text to precede the
numbering/title and text to follow - in paragraph format. (See my
previous
reply to Suzanne)

Would it work to use a SEQ field instead?

I want to be able to number within a paragraph, using either numbers
or
letters without a trailing period or any other type of separator. I
found
information that doing this requires the use of the AutoNumLgl field
and
using the /e switch to eliminate the period. However, whenever I do
that,
the end result is something that looks like the following (the problem
is
inside of the quotations - in other words, it gives me three
periods/spaces
prior to the capital letter A, which is all I'm looking for in the
automatic
numbering):
This section is titled ". . . A" Pricing Information.
What it should look like is:
This section is titled A: Pricing Information.
(Understand that I could/would manually type in the colon.)
In other words, what I'm trying to automatically number is the "A:"
part
of
the sentence. I can get text that says "A." but when I do the "/e"
switch
to
eliminate the trailing period, what I get is " . . . A" instead of "A"
