Formatting in multilevel lists
I have been working in a document that involves a multilevel list format.
When I first started working with this document (previously created by others - I am re-formatting to get it to match several other documents of similar subject) I was able to hit return and then tab over to change to the next level. (i.e. - On level 1 "1.1", hit return "1.2" then hit tab "1.2" changes to "A"). Since my start on this I have since selected/or hit something that discontinued it from doing this... now it just tabs over. If I thought this was going to be a one-time thing, I would not fret, however I have approximately 20 more documents that I have to do similar to this AND I am sure there will be projects in the future that require the same thing. Please, if there is anyone out there who can help me, I would be forever indebted! |

Formatting in multilevel lists
Word 2007? Do the following: Click the Office button, and then click Word
Options. In the Proofing category, click AutoCorrect Options. On the AutoFormat As You Type tab, select "Set left and first indent with tabs and backspaces." Click OK twice. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Bridgegirl" wrote in message ... I have been working in a document that involves a multilevel list format.
