how to start outline numbering at heading 2?
i have to add outline numbering to a document exported from another program
-- I can't change the "incoming" document. The steps excellently detailed in http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html work fine, and the numbering is great, except that the incoming document is unusual -- it has only a single Heading 1. So to look good the outline numbering needs to start on Heading 2. I.e. the first heading 2 should be numbered "1", not "1.1" (I'll delete the first line of the file, the "Heading 1") Is this achievable? Sorry, newbie question from a beginner ... thanks for any answers. |

An outline-numbered list can be linked to any styles you like. Link Level 1
to Heading 2, Level 2 to Heading 3, etc. Alternatively, you can leave the styles linked as they are and leave Level 1 unnumbered, beginning the numbering with Level 2. -- Suzanne S.
