Word 2007: Multi-level lists
Howdy:
I'm numbering the appendices using a multi-level list. The first level uses Alphas where the number of appendices goes beyond Z i.e. A B C .... X Y Z AA BB CC ... ZZ Is there any way that I can change the format so that when the list reaches Z, the numbering continues as follows: A B C ... X Y Z AA AB AC ... Thanks, -- Kim |

To add to what Doug has said, note that SEQ fields don't update automatically. You can force an update by switching to Print Preview and then back to your favorite view (use Ctrl+F2 as a toggle). Also, you can explicitly update the fields in the selection by pressing F9.

Word 2007: Multi-level lists
Hi Doug & Stefan:
Many thanks for your responses. Methinks I may have bitten off more than I can chew! I now have the code (thanks to you) ... question is, where do I put it? Is this something I need to create in Visual Basics? Thanks heaps, -- Kim "Stefan Blom" wrote: To add to what Doug has said, note that SEQ fields don't update automatically.

Word 2007: Multi-level lists
To enter field codes in your document, first press Ctrl+F9 to insert field
delimiters, { }, and then type the code (note that you cannot type the braces from the keyboard). Press F9 to update. Use Alt+F9 to show/hide field codes. To duplicate a certain field code, you can use copy and paste (be sure to update it, for example by toggling Print Preview). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Kim in Melb" wrote in message ...

To clarify: You will have to press Ctrl+F9 to insert *each pair* of field
delimiters. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...
