Default How can I set-up automatic numbering in a MS Word table?

You're showing your numbering running across. Is that what you want? Do you
want the numbering to go down the first column and then continue in the
second column? That's going to be much harder.

thank you - I am not that well versed... this is what I am trying to do:

BMC 06401 BMC 06402 BMC 06403
BMC 06404 BMC 06405

etc. in a word table - does this make sense and can you perhaps explain
further? Thanks

Unless you define a specific numbered style for each column, each style
linked to a different list template (can be done only through the

Outline
Numbered tab of the Bullets and Numbering dialog), you're going to have

to
settle for semi-automatic numbering, using SEQ fields, a different

sequence
for each column.

For a 4 column table, with the numbering, preferably, going down

than
accross...
