Need help with Undo Automatic Numbering
Need to know how to disable this function. I work with Word daily and number
by hand my items such as: 1. John Smith 1234 Main St Anywhere USA 10000 2. and so on but when I get to the 2nd and 3rd lines, the undo automatic number shows up and I have to right click and cancel, but it keeps coming back! I am indenting the lines and do not use the tab to do this, I do it by hand so that might be causing the problem. Can't seem to figure out how to use the tabs either. Thanks in advance.. |

Need help with Undo Automatic Numbering
On the Tools menu, click AutoCorrect Options. Click the AutoFormat as
you type tab. Clear the "Automatic bulleted lists" and "Automatic numbered lists" options, and click OK. In fact, you may want to clear most of the options in the dialog box; see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/TameAutoFormat.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Terri" wrote in message ...

If you want manual numbering then Tools autocorrect options autoformat
as you type - uncheck automatic numbered lists (and probably most of the rest of the stuff on that page too). -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Terri wrote: Need to know how to disable this function.
