Hi, I use a document template which has sections for the rooms of a property. Each section has a table for the room info, and each table line has a column for a unique number.

These line numbers are entered as a numbered list, so if I insert an extra line in a table the line numbers update automatically. Also the numbers pick up at the start of a room where they left off in the previous one (e.g. if the last line in the 3rd room was number 53, the first line in the 4th room will be number 54).

So, here's the problem - when I get to a job, I change the order of these room sections depending on the layout of the property. This messes up my numbered list, and I have to right click the first number of each room and select "continue numbering" to correct it. This is annoying and time consuming - is there a way to correct the list in one go?



I tried Ctrl+A and then F9 to update fields, but that didn't work. Also after changing the order I seem unable to select the whole numbered list - it breaks down into separate sections depending on which rooms were moved and which weren't.

All help much appreciated, thank you
