Numbered style bug in Word 2007?
YES!
[Watch me give you a standing ovation] It seems very logical now and it works. Funny though that my way worked well in Word 2003. But maybe my way was always wrong? Thank you so much for this. Åsa Cronqvist |

Numbered style bug in Word 2007?
Pam, if you're still reading this - I have another question related to
this. Imagine that I have two more levels in this list style. Level 8 is an "i-list" and Level 9 is an "a-list", like this. (i) apples (ii) bananas and the other: (a) apples (b) bananas The reason for having them in the same list as the others is that I want them to restart after a heading. This works fine. My only problem is that I also want a numbered list: 1. apples 2. bananas I want this list to restart after a heading. But I can only use nine levels. Any ideas? |

Ã…sa,
Well, you can have more than one list style in a W2007 document. But for your situation you'd have to be able to set a restart for a level in another list style. I'm not sure that's possible. You only need one more level, so if you could reduce the number of sublist levels to heading 1, you'd be able to get the last sublist level into the list. I'm interesting in knowing how it works out.

Numbered style bug in Word 2007?
I'm glad you got it sorted. But note that it is very easy to get it wrong,
since you cannot tell (by inspection) which number represents which level in the outline. Also, Word interprets the hierarchy of outline numbering very strictly; if you apply a lower level heading before a higher level one, the numbering will often be incorrect. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP wrote in message ...

The alternative is to insert SEQ fields. You can have them restart after a
bult-in heading style by adding the \s switch to the SEQ field code. For example, the following field: { SEQ test \* alphabetic \s 1 } would produce a sequence of letters a, b, c, ...; it will restart when the field follows a *built-in* Heading 1 paragraph. (For a sequence of roman numerals, use \* roman instead of \* alphabetic.) To create a SEQ field, you can press Ctrl+F9; Word inserts field delimiters, { }. Type the code as shown. The "test" part is the identifier, which identifies fields belonging to the same sequence. Choose an identifier that makes sense to you. To update the result of the field at the insertion point, press F9, and to show/hide field codes, press Alt+F9. You can use copy and paste whenever you want to duplicate a field. Note that SEQ fields do not update automatically, which will be especially apparent if you used copy and paste to duplicate them. You can force an update of fields by switching to Print Preview and then back to your current view. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PamC via OfficeKB.com" u43222@uwe wrote in message news:91d25711573d8@uwe...

And for more on the SEQ field, see this article:

Numbered style bug in Word 2007?
I feel a little stupid now, but I don't understand how I should use
this. I am familiar with fields and how to insert them and how to see field codes. But in this case when I have a template that I've made for regular users to use. I don't know beforehand where in the document they will use a numbered list. Where do I type this field information? Somewhere in the document? I don't understand. Åsa |

I looked at the link you provided (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/
word/HP051861901033.aspx?pid=CH061047291033) and it says: "The easiest way to insert SEQ fields to number tables, figures, and other items in a document is to use the Caption command (Insert menu, Reference submenu). " In other words, I need to create an extra button for this? I wouldn't get this style to appear along with my other styles? In this case I find it better to include my tenth style with the others and add an extra button for "restart numbering", which is what I was trying to avoid in the first place. Is this the best I can do? Åsa |
