Outline numbering in lower level headings
I wanted to use Outline numbering starting in heading levels lower than
Heading 1. I want Heading 1, Heading 2, and Heading 3 styles to be without numbering. Then I want the outline numbering to start with Heading 5. For example: Heading 1 Heading 2 Heading 3 Heading 4 1. Heading 5 1.1 Heading 6 1.1.1. Heading 7 2. Heading 5 2.1 Heading 6 2.1.1. Heading 7 I was able to do this in older version of Word. But every time I modify the heading style, going into Format Numbering Outline Numbered and apply the appropriate levels (i.e. level 2 to Heading 6) the Heading 6 reference remains at level 6, even when I delete it and it resets to level 6 every time, no matter how I configure it or clear the formatting. It seems that there is an automatic reference or link that presets the heading styles to outline levels. Does anyone know how to truly override this? Like I said, I used to do this all the time in older versions of Word. |

Outline numbering in lower level headings
Have you tried using the principles at
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...ppendixes.html to create numbered "appendixes," leaving the main headings un-numbered? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "SDesmond" wrote in message news  I wanted to use Outline numbering starting in heading levels lower than Heading 1.

Outline numbering in lower level headings
That's what I'm trying to do, but the problem is that whenever I set the
Heading 1 style to a "no style" state in the Outline Numbering dialog, the change does not save. I'll set it to no outline, click OK and it will just stay with the number. When I re-enter the dialog it has been bumped from "no style" to "Heading 1". This seems to be a bug to me since it is not saving my changes.

Outline numbering in lower level headings
No, you need to link Level 1 with Heading 1, just set the *number style" to
"(none)." -- Suzanne S.

Outline numbering in lower level headings
But can I link level 1 to Heading 5 and NOT Heading 1? I don't want numbers
on Heading 1-4, but I do need outline-style numbers on Heading 5-7. I did this in Word 2000. "Suzanne S.

Outline numbering in lower level headings
You link Heading 1 to Level 1, Heading 2 to Level 2, and so on, but you omit
numbering from Headings 1-4, then start the numbering with Level 5/Heading 5. -- Suzanne S.

Outline numbering in lower level headings
The idea is that all heading styles should be attached to the same numbering
scheme (list template), but only Headings 5-9 should have a number format defined. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "SDesmond" wrote in message ...
