Customized numbering
I would like to set up a template to include the following numbering:
1:00 1:01 1:02 etc up to 1:12 2:00 2:01 2:02 2:03 etc 3:00 3:01 etc up to 3:10 and so on. I am using Word 2007. I can't find how to modify the existing styles or to create new styles to achieve the above. I would appreciate any help. |

How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Ribbon Versions of Word by Shauna Kelly
You cannot build a structure that ends at 10 or 12 but you can build one that you tell Word you want to start a new section, i.e. switch from 2 to 3. |

Thank you. I have spent the last few hours trying to follow Shauna's instructions.
I have set up the paragraphs and list styles and saved the new template. However, when I open a document based on the template, I can select Heading 1 and get 1:00 but when I press return, I get Heading 2 but it is not numbered. What am I missing, please? |

You need to set up all of the levels as a part of one list template. Follow all of the steps in Shauna's article. This is convoluted and not intuitive, but it does work. Screenshots and a sample document are attached.

I'm not sure why it doesn't, but the screenshot for the list definition for level 2 should show that it is including numbering from the Heading 1 style.

Thanks, I will give that a try and report back.

I am not getting this! I can get the Heading 2 as your screenshot but it goes wrong after that. Is there anywhere I can look up what the whole set up should look like, please?
I really appreciate your help - sorry I appear dim. I grew up with earlier versions of Word but would really like to master this outline numbering in Word 2007. |

Open the attached document "deleteme.docx." Work from there.
"It goes wrong after that..." doesn't tell me what is going wrong. |

I have been trying to set up the list from Shauna's instructions. She uses the Multilevel List and says do not use the other options. I see from your deleteme.dox that you are using the Numbered List. Do you prefer this?
When I follow her instructions, on the Headings 1-9, I get 1:00 1:01 1:01 1:01 and don't see how to progress to 1:02, 1:03, 2.00, etc. (BTW, I have just installed Office 365 but I don't think this will be too different from 2007.) |
