Prefixing heading numbers with custom letters, varying by section, in Microsoft Word?
By default, Microsoft Word 2010 (Windows) comes with default heading styles (e.g. Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3….). These defaults can be changed based on need. For example, I modified the default headings to look like this: So now I have a document that is structured like: Code:
1. Content 1.1 Content 1.2 Content 1.2.1 Content 2. Content 2.1 Content 2.1.1 Content 2.1.2 Content ------ section break ------- 3. Content 3.1 Content 3.2 Content 3.3 Content 4. Content ------ section break ------- 5. Content 5.1 Content 5.2 Content 5.3 Content 5.3.1 Content However, what I need to do is restart the numbering at the beginning of each section and put a custom prefix is front of those numbers. Like this: Code:
X1. Content X1.1 Content X1.2 Content X1.2.1 Content X2. Content X2.1 Content X2.1.1 Content X2.1.2 Content ------ section break ------- XI1 Content XI1.1 Content XI1.2 Content XI1.3 Content XI2 Content ------ section break ------- XII1 Content XII1.1 Content XII1.2 Content XII1.3 Content XII1.3.1 Content Let's say I have up to three levels per section -- x, x.x, x.x.x --- my thinking is that I need to create 3 custom heading styles per section for a total of, in this example, 9 custom heading styles (if my math is right). I was hoping there was an easier way than that. Any suggestions? |
