I'm hoping someone can help me. I have created a new numbering style called part A and have used the inpartnum field. I can't seem to get the part number to revert back to A when used with a new schedule. I've tried the edit field, start at value, inserted A but it doesn't appear to be working. Can anyone help at all. Thanks

• How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Ribbon Versions of Word by Shauna Kelly

You should be using multilevel list numbering set up as described in that link. Set your numbering for level 2 (A B C) to restart upon a change in level 1 (Schedule). Currently, your Schedule is not in the list. There is no need for the inpartnum list.

Read the link and redo your numbering attaching each level to a distinct paragraph style.

Hi Charles, many thanks for replying. I have now created the correct styles with schedule as level 1, schedule heading as level 2, part 1 as level 3, part 1A as level 4 and part A as level 5. This is all working fine as headings until I cross reference. Our house style is 'part' should be lowercase but when I insert it, it is title case. Is there a way to tell the cross reference to be lowercase for part?

Something along the lines of: { Ref whatever \* Lower }
