First let me say - Arghh!!!!

I create a style based on a list. However I am unable to apply it to any
text. :( I followed the instructions for creating a style.

Why? Can this be fixed?

Is the list autonumbered? If so, you've run into Word's numbering problems.

Which version of Word are you using?

Thanks - loved the article. The style that I was trying to create was for a
simple numbered list so the article did not quite solve the problem. (It
did however help me with the outline and headings I am using).

I am deleted the style I created and plan to start over. Is there a
similar article for a simple ordered list? I am using Windows XP.
