You can select the relevant cells and, on the Home tab of the ribbon, choose
a number format by clicking the Numbering button. (That is the quick way to do it; the proper way is to apply a numbered style.) -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "pacas" wrote in message ...

Thanks to Stefan. THat does what I need, though it also adds a period and
tabs to the numbers. Ummm - how does one apply a numbered style? I tried the "design" tab in the table tools set, and don't see anything about numbering in any of the 'styles' options.

You can use the Apply Styles pane (Ctrl+Shift+S) to apply the List Number
style to selected text. Note that you can and should modify the style to suit your needs. Click the Modify button, and then click Format, Numbering. Click Define New Number Format. In the "Number format" box, delete the period. Click OK. After you have closed the Modify Style dialog box, right-click the numbered paragraph and then choose Adjust List Indent from the context menu. Clear the tab stops and indentation. Click OK. If/when you are prompted to update the style, choose to do so. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "pacas" wrote in message ... Thanks to Stefan.

I forgot to mention that you have to change the "Follow number with" to
"None" or "Space" (in the Adjust List Indents dialog box); otherwise the text will start at the default tab stop. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...
