Hi Jay,

Your description suggests you didn't set the numbering to restart only after there's been a paragraph with a higher-order number (eg in 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.2.1, 1.3, 2, 2.1, 1 & 2 are higher-orders than 1.1 & 2.1 and 1.3 is higher-order than 1.2.1)

Hi macropod,

thanks for your reply. Yes, what you are saying seems to be the reason for my issue.

Would you be able, to point out to me how I can fix it?

Thanks mate,

Regards,

Jay
