MS Office Forum / Word / Numbering / November 2006Heading 1 = Roman numeral, Heading 2 = 1.1
Word 2002 SP3 I have been trying to set up styles to do the following headings: I. = Heading 1 1.1 = Heading 2 1.1.1 = Heading 3 I can't seem to separate Heading 2 from Heading 1. Heading 2 either becomes I.1 or if I modify the number by hand, it doesn't update. Does anybody have any idea wether it is possible to create the above Headings. And if it is not possible, does anybody have a trick to get around the problem? Thanks! First of all, be sure you're setting up your outline numbering according to the instructions at http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html so it will be as trouble-free as possible. Then check the box for "Legal-style numbering" which will permit you to have a roman numeral in Heading 1 that is interpreted as arabic in the lower-level styles.  SignatureSuzanne S.

Suzanne, thank you for this and sorry it took so long to get back to you. It resolved the problem but now I am having problems with the Levels. It does everything fine until 1.1.1.1. When I get that far it doesn't show me the previous levels so won't add the numbers. Any ideas? Thanks again, Tanya > First of all, be sure you're setting up your outline numbering according to > the instructions at [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > > > Thanks! If you started with one of the outline numbering formats that use 1, 1.1, 1.1.1, etc., you should be good up to nine levels, and if you used the format that shows Heading 1, Heading 2, etc., your levels should already be linked to styles. It may be easiest to start from scratch with your numbering (be sure you follow the steps at http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html), but at any given level in an outline-numbered list, the Outline Numbered dialog should show all the previous levels when you click the arrow beside the "Previous level number" box, so you can insert them manually, along with the desired punctuation.

I followed the instructions to the letter (I hope!) but now I'm having the problem that its not restarting the numbering. I've tried doing 'restart numbering after level 3 (if I'm dealing with Level 4 for example) but it doesn't update. Can't figure out what I'm going wrong or what I haven't done. Tanya ps it still doesn't show me the previous level 5 but fortunately I don't have many 1.1.1.1's > If you started with one of the outline numbering formats that use 1, 1.1, > 1.1.1, etc., you should be good up to nine levels, and if you used the [quoted text clipped - 47 lines] > > > > > > > > Thanks! One other question - is it possible to set the Headings to title case? I've managed to do All Caps or no caps but not Title Case. Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, I don't know what your problem could be, as I've never had this happen. If you'd like to send me a sample doc, I'll take a look. Unfortunately, no, Title Case is not an option.

I went back into Heading 1 and repeated the settings for all the levels various times and it eventually got it right, that is why I presume it is a refresh problem because I didn't actually change anything - just went back into every level from Heading 1 down. The document is very long. At the moment I seem to have managed to fiddle it, even though I know that is not the best way to do things. My deadline is Monday so by now, fiddling is ok! Thanks for your attention and I hope I won't be bothering you again. Tanya > I'm sorry, I don't know what your problem could be, as I've never had this > happen.
