How do I number a list out of sequence?
How are you inserting these numbers?
The most logical way would be to insert SEQ fields - something along the lines of REQ{SEQ REQ}: Save the sequence and its associated text (as a formatted autocorrect entry) and replace the REQ entries with this sequence. Depending on how you have inserted the numbers, you may be able to use the replace function to replace them with the field copied to the clipboard. Whenever you want to add an entry insert a new line at the appropriate place and insert the autocorrect entry. The SEQ fields so inserted will not *automatically* update. To update them the simplest method is to use an update macro attached to a toolbar button - see http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm for suitable code or select all (CTRL+A then F9 to update). -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Pieter wrote: I need to number 'requirements' and the numbers must increment as they are added. E.g.: REQ1: ABC REQ2: DEF REQ50: ZZZ REQ3: GHI . . i.e. I have added requirement 50 after requirement 49, but its position is after requirment 2. Thanks |
