Deb,
Not sure I follow, however you might try a SEQ field in
your AutoText. For example:
{ SEQ Clause }. Blah, blah, blah
(a) Blah, blah
(b) Blah, blah
Enter the { } with CTRL+F9.
Right click the field code and select "update field."
Select the entire clause and create an AUTOTEXT entry.
Each time you insert a new clause press CTRL+a and F9 to
update the fields.

Thank you Greg.
I had never heard of an SEQ Clause, but I did a search, and came
across the MVP site on numbering and I am deep into it now. I need to
understand a lot more, I think, because I will be working more and
more with .rtf documents that have been created with HotDocs and I see
numbering is much more complicated that I had originally thought.
Thanks again for the lead
Deb

"Clause" is just the identifier of the sequence you're generating numbering
for.

Thank you. As I say, I'm into the MVP site now - I'm not going to work
on the problem for a while until I have a better understanding of the
issue.
