MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / May 2008numbering stops when I press enter
I'm trying to write an outline for something, and I've gone to format and chosen the outline style I want. The first line shows the number, but after I type and press enter, the next line does not continue in the outline format (i.e. no number, no letter, no indent, no nothing). I can use the drop-down menu at the top to select the outline level I want, but I know that before it automatically did it when I pressed enter. I also checked autoformat and all the built-in autonumbering, etc. boxes are checked. How can I fix this? If you press Enter immediately after a number (the paragraph is empty), Word assumes you don't want it numbered. Type at least a space before pressing Enter, and you will get another number. OTOH, if you are using Word's built-in heading styles, then the "Style for following paragraph" is Normal.  SignatureSuzanne S.

For example in the first line, the number appears '1)' and I type so that it reads '1) Introduction' and press enter and nothing appears in the second line. > If you press Enter immediately after a number (the paragraph is empty), Word > assumes you don't want it numbered.
