auto numbering in styles using outline, restarting each use at 1
I have using the auto numbering in a styles feature to create auto numbering
in a specification. Each level starts number at 1, however, each time I apply the section, the number continues from the previous section. The only way I have been able to get the number to restart at 1 is by manually going into the "bullets & numbering" and selecting the restart numbering key every time I use each level. Is there no way to include this automatically so that when you use the level style it will also renumber from 1 (or a set number), thus avoiding the additional step. |

Hi Anthony,
What sort of breaks are you putting in your document? If it is a page break that might be why you are having trouble. Try inserting a section break instead then go into headers and footers and click on the Link to Previous button to break the connection between sections. "Anthony J.
