Default How to do intelligent autonumbering?

Hi:

I would like to create a document numbering that help me automatically increase the number. I have been using the SEQ field to do so. However, I want the numbering prefixed with the header paragraph's number. For example:

1. Intro
..... some text...
2. some Other header
.... some more text
3. cases
3.1 Tiger
case # 3.1.1 Color
.. some more text.....

case # 3.1.2 Taste
.. some more text.....

case # 3.1.3 weight
.. some more text.....

3.2 Elephant
case # 3.2.1 Weight
case # 3.2.2 Color
....

I want to create numbering that will generate the case numbers, and reset using the prefix (3.1, 3.2 etc.). Note that 1, 2, 3, 3.1, 3.2 are of format Heading1, Heading 2 etc.

So far, with the SEQ field code, I could only generate something like this:

1. Intro
..... some text...
2. some Other header
.... some more text
3. cases
3.1 Tiger
case # 1 Color
.. some more text.....

case # 2 Taste
.. some more text.....

case # 3 weight
.. some more text.....

3.2 Elephant
case # 4 Weight


case # 5 Color
....

I hope this is not too confusing.

Thanks.

Norman
