Is this a Caption?

No, this is an image of a Word file. I want the numbers of the formulas to be displayed on the right side of the page and not on the left.

The numbers of the equations should be Captions.

For Equation Captions on the same line, see How to Create Captions for Equations.

Especially for Equations, see: Section 7 Captions and cross-references | Microsoft Word for the Social Sciences

Hello Charles, first of all, I want to thank you again for helping me with my problems. Secondly, I would like to apologize for my poor English: I misunderstood your question about captions. I didn't use captions, but numbered list items of multi-level lists. Third, after following the links you posted, I found a way to place my numbers on the right side of the page. I use tables with two cells and put the number in the right cell. This works well but is a lot of work since the paper is 30 pages long. So if you have any hint on how to do the work with less effort, I would be very grateful. If not, thanks anyway. Ganz herzlichen Dank!

Nothing with less work, I'm afraid. Word is not completely suited to numbering on the right side. That said, you still should be using Captions if you want to have an automatic Table of Equations in your Document.

When posting images, documents, etc., please attach them directly to your posts here, rather that posting links to external sites. With images, it's preferable for the width to be no more than 1240 pixels. You can attach files via the paperclip button on the Advanced posting screen.
