Is there any way I can use Word's outline numbering but instead of First,
Second, it can put Primero, Segunda?

I have Word's Spanish proofing tools installed for spell checker, etc.

TIA MarieJ

I don't know but I suspect that, if this is possible at all, it will need a
Spanish version of Word and not just the Spanish Proofing Tools. But wait
for someone else to confirm - or otherwise.

Tony, that works! I tried just changing my Word language to Spanish
(Mexican) and using the First, Second choice in outline numbering and it knew
to put in the Spanish words. Now we just need the feminine version instead
of masculine, but at least this is a step in the right direction.

Glad you got it sorted. I seem to recall having seen some discussion of
gender somewhere and, for the moment, I think it remains on a wish list.
Although I have some interest in internationalization my knowledge is
woefully inadequate so perhaps someone else will confirm or not.
