quick parts auto numbering
I am trying to save auto numbered paragraph in Quick Parts. I have saved them
as Quick Parts and as "insert text only" but when I insert any Quick Part that has more then one paragraph which are auto numbered it will only insert the paragraph starting at number 1 and not as the continuing number to run on from the document I am working in and inserting the autotext into. Single paragraphs will insert fine and the number will insert as the next auto number in sequence. It is only when I have more than one paragraph in the Quick Parts saved that it reverts back to number 1 in the auto numbering list. |

Did you make sure to select whole paragraphs before creating the building
block? Was the auto numbering created via a paragraph style? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Shelley V" Shelley wrote in message ... I am trying to save auto numbered paragraph in Quick Parts.

Yes I selected the whole paragraphs (no soft returns) and used numbering via
the format bullets and numbering customising my own format (this format was also emulated in the base document where I want the building block to be inserted). I tried it by NOT using the paragraph mark at end of paragraph and also by using it and neither work when you have a multi level list of numbered paragraphs to be inserted. Single level work fine with or without the return saved. "Stefan Blom" wrote: Did you make sure to select whole paragraphs before creating the building block?

Hmm, I can't reproduce what you are describing... When I test it, it seems
to work as expected. What happens if you set this up as a multilevel list attached to paragraph styles? Place the insertion point in the list, and choose Home tab | Multilevel List | Define New Multilevel List. (If you need help with the dialog box, see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html.) Does that improve things at all? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Shelley V" wrote in message ...
