Hanging indents and numbered lists
When writing exam papers I frequently need to layout a paragraph as follows:
(the following need to be viewed in a mono-spaced font) 1. a) The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. b) Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz This is easy to achieve using manually numbered sections and subsections, using tabs and hanging indents. However, the nearest I can achieve using automatically numbered lists is as below 1. a) The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. b) Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz. i.e. I cannot have the section number (1) and the subsection number (a) on the same line when using auto numbered lists. Is there a way I could achieve this? |

Hanging indents and numbered lists
Insert a LISTNUM field where you want the "a)": Press Ctrl+F9 to insert
field delimiters, { }. Type LISTNUM \l 2 (that is, backslash followed by lowercase L, a space, and 2). Press F9. If necessary, use Alt+F9 to show/hide field codes. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP ___________________________________ "Andrew" wrote in message ...
