Lost Paragraph numbering in Word Documents after upgrade to 2003
I upgraded to Office 2003 (SP3) yesterday from Office 2002, and now in all of
my old 2002 documents that had paragraph numbering, I've lost the sub-paragraph numbers. I still can see the highest level (1.0), but anything below that is just not visible (i.e. 1.2 or 1.2.2). Has anyone else seen this before? Thanks in advance. Ross |

Lost Paragraph numbering in Word Documents after upgrade to 2003
Was numbering set up with styles (as explained at
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...mbering.html)? If so, you could try selecting the problem paragraphs and pressing Ctrl+Q (which resets paragraph formatting). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ross LaBarbera" wrote in message ...

Lost Paragraph numbering in Word Documents after upgrade to 20
I appreciate the advice, but this didn't help. I'm not sure if this will help
point anything out, but I open the same docuements on my laptop which still is at 2002, and the paragraph numbers are visible. It's almost like Word 2003 is only showing the top level paragraph numbers but the detail is really still in the docs. I've tried everything I can think of.

I'm afraid I'm running out of ideas. :-(
Just to be clear, though: Was numbering set up with styles or not? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ross LaBarbera" wrote in message ... I appreciate the advice, but this didn't help.

Also, you may want to check if you can reproduce the issue. What happens if
you create a *new* document in Word 2002, add numbering, and then open it with Word 2003? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...

Lost Paragraph numbering in Word Documents after upgrade to 20
I honestly don't know. I inherited the document from someone else. Is there
any way for me to tell if Styles were used? I still have 2002 on my laptop and when I open the file on it, the numbering is still visible. The problem is that I have 20-30 of these documents which are Support Contracts, and as you'd expect, all of them are exhibiting the same problem. It really is a mystery to me, and I'd HATE to have to go back into all those documents and add numbering again just because I did this upgrade... Thanks in advance.

Place the insertion point in an outline-numbered list, and then click Format
| Bullets and Numbering (not recommended for creating and/or editing existing outline lists, though; see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...umbering.html). In the Customize Outline Numbered List dialog box, click the More button to display the whole dialog box. For each level, see which style (if any) is applied. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ross LaBarbera" wrote: I honestly don't know. I inherited the document from someone else.
