Mail Merge affects Numbered List sequence in Word 2007
I have a 2 page document setup as a tri fold brochure type with 3 columns on
each page. It is an instruction handout so there are numerous topics with numbered lists within each, all beginning with 1. When I do a mail merge, each subsequent merged document has numbered lists that continue from previous instead of restarting at 1. How can I stop this from happening? |
