I have word 2007. I'm working on a process memo with numbered steps. The
steps are auto numbered.

Within this document also have a series of internal controls that are
numbered: "internal control 1.", "internal control 2." etc. Is there a way
for me to auto number "internal control" so that each time I have to add one
to my document it's automatically number and if I remove one it renumbers?
These internal controls appear throughout the document and do have a specific
formatting.

Does this make sense?

Thanks

Create a Style for this with the specific formating that you mention applied,
and include Numbering to this style which you can customise to add the
"Internal Control " (dont forgot the space) text before the numbering.
I don't have 2007 in front of me at the moment but hopefully this will point
you in the right direction.
Once you have created the style and if you need a lot of these appearing in
your document, you can also assign a Keyboard shortcut to the style so it
will be even quicker to apply. Check out "Assign a keyboard shortcut to a
style" in the Help.
All the best

Hi,

Such numbering can also be done with the SEQ field. In fact, if you are
talking about numbering items that are not paragraphs, the SEQ field is the
only option for automatic numbering. For details, see
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/SEQ_Field_Numbering.htm .
