How to start numbering in middle of line
If you are referring to sequential numbering, use SEQ fields for this
purpose. For example: { SEQ myseq } To insert the field delimiters, { }, press Ctrl+F9. Type the code as shown. (What you can modify, though, is the "myseq" part; it identifies the sequence, and you can choose an identifier, or name, that makes sense to you.) Then press F9 to update. To create additional fields in the same sequence, you can either repeat this procedure, or copy existing fields. Note that SEQ fields do not update automatically, which will be especially apparent if you used copy and paste to insert new ones. Instead, switch to Print Preview and back, which triggers an update, or select the whole document (Ctrl+A) and update the fields explicitly (by pressing F9). To show/hide field codes, press Alt+F9. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "AYJ" wrote in message ... Is it possible to do auto numbering in middle of sentence |

How to start numbering in middle of line
No, I was referring to automatic numbering in an article e.g. there are three
reasons for something 1. bla bla bla 2. bla bla bla 3. etc etc, and Iwd like it to be one underneath the other but the first to still be on the line of the original sentence "Stefan Blom" wrote: If you are referring to sequential numbering, use SEQ fields for this purpose.

How to start numbering in middle of line
Note that you can use LISTNUM fields together with auto numbering. For
example: 1 { LISTNUM } would produce 1 followed by 1.1 (assuming that 1, 1.1, 1.1.1 numbering was applied). To insert a LISTNUM field, you can press Ctrl+F9; Word adds field delimiters, { }. Just type the code between delimiters, as shown above. For more control, you can add the \l (lowercase L) switch to explicitly specify the numbering level (in this case you would add 2 for level 2). Press F9 to update fields. Press Alt+F9 to show/hide field codes. For more on LISTNUM, read this (from Word Help): ******** Field codes: ListNum field { LISTNUM ["Name"] [Switches] } Inserts a set of numbers anywhere in a paragraph. LISTNUM fields can be incorporated into numbering from a simple or outline-numbered list. Instructions Name Associates a LISTNUM field with a specific list. To emulate the AUTONUM, AUTONUMOUT, and AUTONUMLGL fields, use the NumberDefault, OutlineDefault, and LegalDefault names with the LISTNUM field. Switches \l Specifies the level in the list, overriding the default behavior of the field. \s Specifies the start-at value for this field. This is always assumed to be an integer. Examples Example 1 LISTNUM fields were used in this example to generate the numbers (i),(ii), and (iii): The Borrower shall deliver to the Bank a certificate of its chief financial officer, certifying that (i) no Default has occurred, (ii) the attached financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and (iii) the attached certificate correctly sets forth the calculations for determining the ratios specified in Sections 5.08, 5.09, and 5.10. ******** Note, however, that SEQ fields give you even more control over the formatting (and if you need multilevel numbering it can be faked by using multiple SEQ fields). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "AYJ" wrote in message ...
