RayMay,

Yes, sort of.

Make sure the document you 'got' is formatted correctly (i.e., no empty
paragraphs).  CTRL+SHIFT+* will show empty paragraphs.  Get rid of them.

Type - SEQ NumMyPara  then select it an press CTRL+F9.  Right click the
field and select update field code.  Select the 1 and press copy it
(CTRL+C).

Edit>Replace.  Type ^13 in the find what field
Type ^c^13 in the replace with field.
Click replace all
Press CTRL+a
Press F9

Here's a macro that will do the job.  This will put a paragraph number
at your insertion point, consecutively, and will automatically adjust
if you insert another paragraph.  It's great.  I assigned it to Alt N

Sub AutoNumAltN()
'
   Selection.Fields.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Type:=wdFieldEmpty,
Text:= _
       "AUTONUMLGL \e ", PreserveFormatting:=False
End Sub
