Para Level 2 (unnumbered) (based on Heading 2 but without numbers).Para Level 2 (numbered) (based on Heading 2).Para Level 3 (unnumbered) (based on Heading 3 but without numbers).You can create what you need with 5 styles. Always work with ‘Define new multi-level list’ even if you are editing an existing setup. During this testing I have reset normal.dotm regularly to ensure I was not using a screwed up template… Jason, I do not expect you to have solutions to all Microsoft problems, this is as much to vent but if you can suggest anything I am all ears.

Honestly, as a software engineer / analyst in a previous life, I would say this code is still at Beta as it barely works with some major issues. I tried to reset using the context menu (right click) “set numbering value” and restart numbering, I followed the on screen sequence and select the correct number. I tried to follow your trouble shooting number reset and checked the “Enter formatting for number”, all where grey, I selected level 2 from the “include level number” but nothing changed. I formatted a new section of copied text (pasted as “keep text only”) using one of my edited multi number / level styles, all previous level 2 in all sections are reset to 1.1 (so 2.1 became 1.1 and 3.1 became 1.1 etc.) I had 12 formatted sections at that point. I am also encountering some other really weird bugs when formatting new sections.

I would have to revisit and insert the correct setting (not just styles but number formats too) using “define new multi level list”. Randomly, but regularly (not as a result of swapping the multi number / level style) the edited multi number / level style would loose all it’s settings. I tried to place a section break only to find these have been replaced by page break, inserting these also fails to prevent the format from resetting. I found when I switched between the two styles in my document it resets previously formatted sections. It accepts the most most recent selection (in this case level 3) but changes level 2 to “no style”.

So if you want “list paragraph” for level 2 and level 3 you cannot. I found that you cannot repeat the use of any text style within a multi number / level style. I ended up edited existing multi number lists using the badly titled “define new multi level list”. I repeated this and again was unable to retrieve any newly created multi number / level style. Whilst creating the new styles you are even prompted to name the list, however they then are not accessible anywhere including the “current list, list library or list in current document” and so cannot be used. However, these new styles do not appear anywhere once saved and therefore cannot be used. I then created two new multi number /level styles with “Define new list style” supporting both the examples above. The multi number / level drop down menu that displays: current list, list library, list in current document is only place I have discovered that I can access / edit / “save” any multi number / level styles.įirstly I removed (right click -> remove from gallery) all of the number styles I do not need (most are ridiculous). I have been on this for some time now trying to work through different solutions. ģ.3 Paragraph content with no headings, part of body of multiple paragraphs each individually numbered supporting the section heading. ģ.2 Paragraph content with no headings, part of body of multiple paragraphs each individually numbered supporting the section heading. this works great!ģ.1 Paragraph content with no headings, part of body of multiple paragraphs each individually numbered supporting the section heading. Ģ.1.3Ĝontent to support the sub section heading possibly running to multiple paragraphs. Ģ.1.2Ĝontent to support the sub section heading possibly running to multiple paragraphs. In defining level 2 as “heading 2” I now get the the whole paragraph incorrectly defined as a heading style.Ģ.1 Sub-section heading Ģ.1.1 Content to support the sub section heading possibly running to multiple paragraphs. However, not all my level 2s are headings, some sections have level 2s as simply numbered paragraphs with no headings. For example, I have associated a “heading 2” style with level 2. The issue I face is my document requires different styles for the same number / level.
