Hi!

I have a problem with numbering headings and following paragraphs that I
wonder if it's possible to solve.

a) I have a couple of headings like this:

1 Heading 1 bla bla
1.1 Heading 2 bla bla
1.1.1 Heading 3 bla bla
2 Heading 1 bla bla
2.1 Heading 2 bla bla
2.1.1 Heading 3 bla bla

This works fine, no problem.

b) Now I also want numbered paragraphs related to the headings like this:

1 Heading 1 bla bla
1.1 Paragrah 2 bla bla
1.1.1 Paragrah 3 bla bla

This also works fine.

c) The problem is though if I now insert another heading, it links to the
previous paragraph instead of the heading.

1 Heading 1 bla bla
1.1 Paragrah 2 bla bla
1.1.1 Paragrah 3 bla bla

1.2 Heading 2 bla bla <------------Wrong! Should be 1.1 (ie related to the
previous heading, not the previous paragraph).

The paragraphs should be linked to the headings but not the opposite so to
say.

I don't know how to do this if possible? Any ideas?

Best

Hi Eric,

Looks to me like it's working like it should!

Since you've already got one Heading2 numbered 1.1, the next one must be
1.2, unless you put a new Heading1 in between, in which case the Heading2
number would be 2.1.

If you're trying to 'resume' paragraph 1.1, then you'll want to use an
*un-numbered* style formatted to look like your Heading2 paragraph from the
2nd line on.

Cheers

Hi Macro,

Thanks for your answer. Not sure I follow though. Let's say I have this:

1 Heading 1 bla bla
1.1 Paragrah 2 bla bla
1.1.1 Paragrah 3 bla bla

1.2 Heading 2 bla bla <------------Wrong! Should be 1.1 (ie related to the
previous heading, not the previous paragraph).

Here the heading links to the paragraph 1.1 instead of the heading (or
something like that, but it's wrong anyhow...:/). I want headings to link to
previous headings instead of paragraphs like it is now.

Or am I missing something?

Any non-heading paragraphs that are part of the same list as the
headings, will (a) continue the numbering from a previous heading (at
the same level) and (b) determine the next number of a following
heading (at the same level). You can't have (a) without (b), or vice
versa.

Of course, nothing prevents you from setting up numbering separately
on the "ordinary" paragraphs that should have it, but then they will
be different lists. If this is what you want, just create the
numbering as you did (or should have) for headings; see
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html.

If you want to keep all the paragraphs as a single list but control
the restarts, you could insert multiple LISTNUM fields to set a
starting number as desired (see
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/numbering/ListRestartByLISTNUM.htm). Note,
however, that this could be very difficult to maintain. Depending on
the complexity of the document, you might find it easier to just type
numbers from the keyboard.

Clarification: Of course, this assumes that the non-heading paragraph
style is *based* on the heading; that's the only way they could
"share" the same numbering level.
