Line/secion/paragraph numbering
In multi level numbering, how can I revert to a higher level without a
separate number without affecting the lower level. Example: In the following sequence: 1) line 1 2) line 2 a. line 3 b. line 4 I want to achieve after line 4: 1) line 1 2) line 2 a. line 3 b. line 4 xxx so that XXX relates to 2) and not b. but is not numbered. If I go shift enter after line 4, I move to the next line without a number but if I then go shift tab at that point b. goes to the higher level and becomes 3) line 4 and decreases the indentation accordingly. |

Line/secion/paragraph numbering
Change the Style of xxx to "Normal" or whatever you're using for
ordinary text. If you want the whole paragraph to be left-indented, then you'll perhaps create a specific style to do that.

Line/secion/paragraph numbering
Press Enter at the end of line 4 so that the following line is a separate
paragraph. Then apply a non-numbered, indented paragraph style. You can make use of the List Continue series of built-in styles or use your own. Alternatively, after pressing Enter at the end of line 4, use BackSpace to outdent and suppress numbering. In this case, you would have to press BackSpace twice, I believe. (You will have to make sure that "Set left and first indent with tabs and backspaces" is selected on the AutoFormat As You Type tab of Office button | Word Options | Proofing | AutoCorrect Options.) The first of these two methods will be easier to work with, especially in a long document that you edit a lot. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "boutells" wrote in message news In multi level numbering, how can I revert to a higher level without a separate number without affecting the lower level.
