Default How do I create a style with the text "NOTE:" at the begining?

I want to create a style that has NOTE: at the beginning. When I apply this
style I only want to add the text for the note. I was able to do this in
Office 2003 but I cannot find where in Office 2007 I can create this style.

Thoughts?

Use the Format Number facility to format the numbering of your style so that
it has the word NOTE: preceding the number, which you actually delete from
the style.

Unfortunately this doesn't work in Word 2007 - see
http://www.gmayor.com/Text_as_bullet.htm . Word 2007 does not allow you to
save a number format with leading text unless you also add a number. So you
could have NOTE: 1 or NOTE: A but not NOTE:

I think I tested and found you could do this with a multilevel list but not
a simple list. Am I crazy?

I see the same thing. I guess that means that if you are crazy, so am I.

I have experienced too that you can make it with a multilevel list (and I
just made a NOTE style again to make sure...).

Hmmm. Back to the drawing board (
It appears that you can do it with a multilevel list but not a simple list.
At least that's a step in the right direction

MS has been pushing us toward "outline" or "multilevel" lists for some time,
at least to accomplish anything useful.

Thanks, for the confirmation, Stefan and Lene. I thought I remembered
figuring this out when I was updating
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/QandA.htm, but I've just looked at that
article and realized that it has not been updated, so I guess that's another
thing to add to my very long list of To Dos!
