In Word XP, When creating an outline, Word is using the
same bullet for everything, even after you press Enter and
Tab ( which suppose to change icon ) does not work.

I can only find 2 related articles on this, and nothing
applies.

I tried remove Office XP and reinstall it to another
directory, that doesn't work either, any help would be
greatly appreciated.

I deleted all registry keys that's related to WORD, and
let word run and reinstall, that fixed the problem.

You have to set up an outline numbered list to use different bullets (each
level linked to a different style) if that's what you want to do. See

Usually you have to come up with the first thing and word
fixes the next letters/numbers. So if you type in 1. under
IV. then after you press enter it gives you two under your
1.
