Subject:FW: RE: Outline Numbered Headings in Word 2000 From:"Steve Hudson" <steve -at- wright -dot- com -dot- au> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 15 Jan 2002 10:55:41 +1100
The simplest way to fix this is to use the format painter to copy the para
style from a good number to the bad. The reason this is happening is at some
point your style defeinition has changed to attach the style to a different
list template than the one you started with.
The easiest way to avoid this sort of problem is to hard set listtemplates
in your template/documents and attach to them, rather than the gallery. I am
preparing a long chapter in my WIP on doing this.

Do they work? This is Office 2000 on Window NT 4.00.1381.
I've checked the archives and cannot find anything specific to my problem.
Also, I have the QUE book on Using Word 2000 and have followed the
directions. Alas! I am getting flakey numbering in one document.
I'm up to number 7.1 (Heading 2 at this point) and I want to create 7.1.1
(Heading 3). Word is insisting on making it 1.1.1.
Also, I cannot save Heading 3 as an Outline Numbered style in my customized
template. Heading 1 and Heading 2 both appear correctly in the Style menu as
"1. Heading 1" and "1.1 Heading 2". But Heading 3 does not appear as "1.1.1
Heading 3".
I don't want to enter the debate about levels of headings. My manager wants
3 and that's my task.
Thanks!
