I have followed (I think) the procedure at
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html., but in 2007 word I don't find an custom outline number gallary. Related problem is that level 1 changes but level two continues form level 2 in the previous level 2 section: Section 1 1.1 1.2 Section 2 1.3 1.4 For heading 2 numbering on modify to follow heading 2 thanks |

2007 Outline #s don't follow when 2nd level doesn't follow § chang
Ok, maybe I've got it. When I call up numbering again, and I go to formating
the number, I replace the unshaded number (that is the number to the left of the decemal) with that of the number on the Heading 1, it uses that number, while the number on the right of the decimal indexes, starting at 1 So, in this listing is the way it was: 1 heading 1 1.1 Heading 2 1.2 Heading 2 2 heading 1 1.3 Heading 2 1.4 Heading 2 I now get: 1 heading 1 1.1 Heading 2 1.2 Heading 2 2 heading 1 2.1 Heading 2 2.2 Heading 2 Surely, I don't have to do this after every Heading 1? What am I missing? |

You don't type the number in as text; you use the "Previous level" dropdown
to insert Level 1, which inserts a field that picks up the numbering of the higher level. If you choose one of the out-of-the-box numbering schemes (such as the one that shows 1, 1.1, 1.1.1 numbering), this is all set up for you automatically. -- Suzanne S.

2007 Outline #s don't follow when 2nd level doesn't follow § chang
I found a good narrative on this subject Word 2007 at
www.uwec.edu/help/Word07/out-bn.htm, which was helpful. Click on multlist, and select a style and close.. Click on multilist again and go straght to "Define new Multilevel List. When there to see more adjustments, go to "More" at the bottom of the panel. There are all the adjustments you need to make in one spot. Will need to use the Outline View from time to time to promote/demote. You also will need to go to styles/modify/format for various items as well, but the numbering under format did not seem to work well, so I suggest doing all this undetr Define new Multlevel list. It also can be helpful in numbering to use the list button as well, it seems to carryover to the multi list. But see the univ of wiscon article.

2007 Outline #s don't follow when 2nd level doesn't follow § chang
The multi-level list in Word 2007 is comparable to the Outline Numbered tab
in Bullets and Numbering in previous versions; it is always the place to go to set up multi-level (outline) lists; that is the method described at http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html. Note that you don't need to use Outline view to promote/demote. You can use the built-in keyboard shortcuts (Alt+Shift+Left/Right Arrow) or, if you have the AutoFormat options appropriately set, Tab and Shift+Tab/Backspace. These shortcuts are listed at the bottom of the article you cited. There's a Microsoft article on the subject (less detailed) at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/wo...CH100626241033. -- Suzanne S.

Also note, you want to use "Define new List style" instead of "Define new
Multilevel list". The former is stored in the document, the latter isn't. Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.
