Default Help with headings numbering

Hi all,



I need help with Word 2013 headings numbering. I need the numbering to start from the third heading.

Example:

Heading 1
Heading 2

1. Heading 3
2. Heading 4

How can i achieve this? Thanks!

Do you mean that Heading 4 should continue the numbering from Heading 3? As far as I know, you can't set it up that way in Word.

Now that I read my post maybe I could explain better

I don't mean the default word headings 1,2,3,4, they we're just examples.

Here is a better example.

"Introduction
Abstract

1. Chapter 1
2. Chapter 2"

So all of the 4 above titles are using the Heading 1 style format in Word. Can I make it so that Heading 1 numbering starts from Chapter 1 and not from Introduction?
Thanks!

Use a different, unnumbered style for your Introduction and your Abstract.
