TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The coworker is one of our professional services consultants. She's
been writing up implementation checklists lately for the various
flavors of installations for her personal use. I haven't asked, but
I'm assuming that's what she wants the style for.
Our implementations can be rather lengthy and complex, so we're
talking long lists of steps that need to be performed in order, often
by different people, on different servers. So both checkboxes and
numbers make sense in this case. Even if , as Mike opined, they are
ugly as sin. ;-)
