I'm working on a large document with about 150 pages in the main body and
with nine appendixes.  The body uses outline numbering (1, 1.1, 1.1.1, etc.),
but Appendix E also needs to have a separate outline structure that needs to
be numbered as E-1, E-1.1, E-1.1.1, etc.).

I'm using Headings 1 through 5 in the main body, and I've tried creating new
styles that I call E1, E2, E3, and E4, for the headings in Appendix E. E1 is
based on "no style," E2 is based on E1, etc.

My problem is that I can't get the numbers to track from the earlier levels.
For example, I'm getting this:

E-1
   E-1.1
E-2
   E-1.2

If I choose "Restart Numbering" on E-1.2, it changes to E1.1, when it should
be E-2.1.

I've read Shauna Kelly's article at
http://shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html but I don't
understand parts of it.  For example, she says I should "Tick the box that
says Restart Numbering After, and ensure it's set to the correct level," but
I can't find a box that says Restart Numbering After.  I can only find
Restart Numbering.

I will greatly appreciate any help you can give.

I'm using Windows XP Professional with Office 2003.

Thanks,

Fred
