Numbered List (Auto-numbering)
In Word 97 if you typed "1. bla bla" and pressed return it would make the
list look like this: 1. bla bla 2. ble ble 3. blu blu In Word 2003 it indents the whole list. With all other auto-format features it seems I can click default so that all new documents, say, have 1 inch margins and are in 12 pt Arial in UK English. However, is there any way that I can set it so that the next time I type a list like this it does not indent it? The same applies for bulletted list of course. Thanks. andrea |

Thanks. Interesting site, but unfortunately doesn't do the trick.

My apologies, Andrea. I did go open 97 and test. Yes, numbered lists are
indented in 2000 and above, actually. If you don't like that (I know I don't), create a style. Then replace your bulleted number button to apply the style instead of the default. This one's going to take some time. Please watch my Word page for it, okay? I wanted to let you know it's on its way. I'll call it Changing default bullets and numbers (or something similar), and it'll be he http://www.officearticles.com/word/index.htm ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Andrea Woelke" wrote in message ...
