LISTNUM field
Hi all,
I'm a Word 2003 user and am working on an auto table of contents. I am using section breaks to separate my sections. I would like to use the LISTNUM field to number my subsections in order to create cross references to the subsections (which makes it easier to mark the text - if I used auto numbering I would have to manually insert each subsection number in the field code). The LISTNUM field works great in section 1, however, I can not figure out how to make the LISTNUM field know that I am in a new section, so when I use the field in the next section it still lists the numbers as 1.1, 1.2, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, etc. Does anyone know of a switch, or some other way to identify that I'm in a new section? |

LISTNUM field
You can add the \s switch (with a number as an argument) to an existing
LISTNUM field code to have it restart the numbering, if that is what you are asking. But note that it will be easier to use autonumbering (see http://www.shaunakelly.com/numbering...Numbering.html) and then create cross-references to heading numbers via the Insert | Reference | Cross-Reference dialog box. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PJY" wrote in message ...
