Default Numbering restart

Hi
I am using Word 2003. I have a style that numbers paragraphs OK, but when I
want to start another set of numbered text 5 pages later it picks up from
where it left off numbering. How can I force it to restart at 1 after
intervening text please?
Thanks
Phil

If right-clicking and selecting "Restart numbering" doesn't do it for you,
then you probably need to set up "outline numbering" with a dummy
higher-level style to restart numbering.

Wouldn't you have to insert a section break at each instance that you want to
restart numbering?

Absolutely not! For page numbering, yes, but the discussion here is of
paragraph numbering.
