Hi All

Bit of advice on numbering paragraphs.

I have created a document template and correctly set up my headings so they number correctly. Under each section I then have numbered clauses.

e.g.

5.1 - Policy
Intro text etc. etc.

1. First clause

The manger has now asked that each line has a number.

e.g.

5.1 - Policy


5.1.1.1 - Intro text..
5.1.1.2 - First clause

Is there anyway to do this without writing the whole document in Heading 4 or similar?

I guarantee that they will soon comeback and ask for some lines to be non-numbered too..

Thanks in advance!!

Please ignore, after being an idiot, I think I have fixed it by identifying a broken multilevel list.

You will have to make your body text style part of the multilevel list that also contains the headings.

Or you can create a body text style which is based on the relevant heading level.
