I am using Word 2003

Thank you both for your help.  I did try to follow the article that Charles
pointed me to.  I have the outline set up the way I want it, but am still
having problems with the numbering.  Per Suzanne, I went back to check the
"Previous Level number" (PLN) box.  On each level I checked the previous
level in that box.  But nothing shows up in the box after I have picked a
level.  For example, for level 3, I opened the "PLN" box.  There was a list -
Level 1 and level 2   I chose (clicked on) level 2.  But when I left the box
level 2 does not show up in the box.  Is it suppose to?  I tried one click
and two clicks but nothing show up.

Any other ideas?
