I have just read, and tried to understand, John's excellent article, Word's
numbering explained. I think I understand most of it and will come back with
specific questions if I don't. In the meantime, because of the date of the
article I'm unclear about versions: is the article in its entirety applicable
to 2003? If not, which portions are not?

Thanks

I haven't looked at it recently, but I suspect it was probably written about
Word 2000-era, and nothing about numbering would have changed for Word 2003
(there are a few changes in Word 2007). List styles were introduced in Word
2002 or 2003, but since we don't really understand how they're supposed to
work, most of us don't use them. See also
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html for the
straight poop on setting up pretty much unbreakable outline-numbering
schemes.

Well, since Word 2007 does not allow you to access the settings for
outline/multilevel lists via a paragraph style, using list styles actually
makes (more) sense now... As previously, you can create a list style *and*
link each numbering level of the list style to a paragraph style.

Thanks for confirming my thoughts. You're work is much appreciated (all of
you). It's so nice to know that I'm not alone in this madness. ; ahdoj
