Trust me. I researched my issue before creating a new thread. I realize where the list levels are created and modified. And, I have read through S. Kelly's directions a couple times. I cannot find the solution to my problem in it.

I am seeking a specific solution to my problem. Not the blanket read S. Kelly response.

When I create a multi-level list starting with 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 etc. for Heading 1, MS Word will number the following headings as I need. As soon as I remove numbering from Heading 1, headings thereafter no longer number themselves correctly.

Will someone please tell me specifically how to solve this issue provided a solution exists?
