Problem with list styles
Hi,
I have defined list styles in Word 2003 to be used for numbered and bulleted lists. It solved the problem that i previously had while copying text from one document to the other (Word used to join all numbered list into one long list...) which made me very happy. However, a new problem poped up - when i try to indent the first item in the list (by clicking Tab at the beginning of the line or by clicking the Indent button at the Format toolbar) nothing happens - the line remains in the same location. This does not happen if i use Wrd standard button for numbered list definition. How can i make the first list item "indentable"? Or how do i use numbered styles that behave exactly like the native Word numbered list? |

Hi,
Reacting to the first part of your message: You can set wether Word joins lists after pasting or not. Maybe if you use that your second problem is no longer relevant? Click this route (Give or take a few synonyms, as I am using another language) : Tools, Options, Editing: There's a button called 'Settings'. Look at the bottommost checkbox. For the indenting lines, have you set Word to automatically start a list when you type? It is in Tools, AutoCorrect options, AutoFormat as you type. This would apply a list style, which is usually indented, on the fly. Jeroen "Sefi" schreef in bericht ... Hi, I have defined list styles in Word 2003 to be used for numbered and bulleted lists.

Hi,
I tried reseting this Paste options but it did not help. It seems that when built-in styles are used for list (which is what we do) Word joins pasted lists no matter how this option is set. Sefi. |
