See http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Format...eformatted.htm.

For outline numbering see: How to create numbered headings or outline
numbering in your Word document
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html. (For bullets
see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/bull...olbullets.html, the subject
is related.)

Essentially, for anything at all complex or that will be heavily edited, do
_not_ use numbering or bullets from the toolbar!

Using Microsoft Office Document Scanning, I OCRd a letter and sent it on to
Word. For some reason the document thought it was HTML, but ok, I saved it as
.doc and proceeded. The usual glitches from OCR were easy to cope with. But
Numbering and Bulleting would not cooperate. When I highlighted a paragraph
and invoked numbering from the toolbar the entire document was numbered.
Ctrl-Z-ing back from there found the paragraph numbered correctly. But at the
next instance the same thing happened. Finally threw up my hands and gave up.
Later it occurred to me to copy the whole thing to Windows Clipboard and drop
it in a new document, but I haven't tried it yet.

I could not find a setting that controls whether formatting applies to a
selection or to the whole document. Is there one?

Can I impose my normal template on a document?

Thanks,
