Exclamation TAB not change numbering

I have styles in my document. And I use write something, change styles, have numbering and use TAB to down number to 1.1 ect.

But sometimes I use style:
3.3 asjkajdkasjd
3.4 hajdhsadjshd
3.4.1 sdjahdjzfhs
3.4.2
3.5

but when I use TAB and want have 3.4.1 Word made 3.5!! But another place in document I use the same style and change to 3.4.1!!!!
I used this styles on different document and sometimes is perfect!! But when I want use styles on old documents and I want format to my new style numbering sometimes not work perfect.

Sorry for my English.

Note that Tabbing only works when the insertion point is at the beginning of a numbered paragraph. Also, it doesn't work for the first item of a list.

For what it's worth, you can use Alt+Shift+Left arrow and Alt+Shift+Right arrow for promoting and demoting list items.

Alt+Shift+Left arrow - work for this number
Alt+Shift+Right arrow - not work for this number

Strange. Have you set up your outline list using the instructions at http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...ering2003.html?

If you test the key combinations in another document, do you still see the problem?

I know why I have problem. Because I must use "follow change" when I not follow and accept all change numbering perfect work!! But If I don't accept it's still the problem. So I must change the text and accept and than use new numbering...

Are you saying that you are tracking changes? In that case, yes, it explains numbering problems. You will have to accept changes (and turn off the tracking), and then numbering will be correct again.
