Subject:TOOLS: MS Word numbering frustration From:Becca Price <becca_price -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:Techwr-l <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Mon, 15 May 2000 07:39:24 -0700 (PDT)
I'm using Word 97-sr2 on Windows NT. I've just been
given a new document template to use ... and it uses
automatic numbering for the Steps style. The trouble
is, the autonumbering continues from the previous
list. When I select Format: Bullets and Numbering and
check "start at 1", the numbering restarts, but I lose
my indentations. yeah, I can fix it, but it's a pain.
Does anyone know how to use the autonumbering feature
so that this doesn't happen? I normally avoid it just
for this reason.

our lot." N. Machievelli, "The Prince" ch.26
