I may have another solution to the autonumbering problem. I've found that
when I hit a return after a numbered list (step) and it assigns a funky
number to my new graf and to the preceding, when I Undo by pressing Ctrl-Z,
the preceding number goes back to what it was and allows me to just type
the
next number for the new graf. I've done this several times (using RHELP 7
on
top of Word 97), compiled, come back in and checked, and all looked normal.
Has anyone else done this? Is it just a fluke, or did I stumble onto
something that works for all?

In response to a question about autonumbering in Word 2000 initially posed
by Chantel Brathwaite, Jane Bergen wrote:

Based on my own preliminary experimentation, it appears that the worst
autonumbering problems of Word 97 live on in Word 2000. I plan to continue
using SEQ fields instead of autonumbering. (A tip about this is available
on
our Web site at http://www.knopf.com/tips.htm.)
Perhaps autonumbering will truly work well in Word 2010. ;)
