Word Styles with Numbered Lists
Hi:
I am working on a document that contains numbered lists AND text. I created a STYLE(1) for the numbered lists. I created a STYLE(2) for the text. I applied STYLE(1) to the 1st list and it formatted correctly: 1. fjsdjl 2. skjdfjk 3. skjfskjf 4. ajksdjflk I applied STYLE(2) to the text following and it formatted correctly: ksdljdsljsldlsskddf kj kkdflk lkajdf lkajdd lkkad dfkk aldf kka kasjdflaj dsdlkfjsd k klladfkjsdlkfjl I then applied STYLE(1) to the next (2nd) list and it formatted like this: 5. akjdjks 6. asjdkfjs 7. skdjfs etc., etc. I can't tell STYLE(1) to "Start a New List". If I remove the STYLE(1) from the 1st list, the 2nd list formats correctly, starting with 1, 2, etc., however, if I re-apply STYLE(1) to the 1st list, eventually the 2nd lists starts at 5 (again). I have absolutely NO idea how to get around this problem. I must be doing something wrong. As much as I would like to manually enter the numbers on the lists, I need to Right Align 1-9 to line up with 10, 11, etc. on a long list. I could do this manually and I may end of doing just that if I can't figure out WTF is going on. Thanks for any assistance!! Doug |

You need to use the multilevel list with one paragraph style per level. See How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Ribbon Versions of Word by Shauna Kelly for directions.
For alignment, see Number Alignment 2007 and later by Suzanne Barnhill, MVP. |
