TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I am sure that subject line got about as much attention as "Free Beer"
would.
I have turned off all autonumbering.
I have created Macros (Where is Steve Hudson when I need him) to restart
numbering when a second list is generated. This helps to prevent Word from
"thinking for me" and continuing a list. My lists often contain multiple
levels. I have setup a style to accommodate this. Quite methodically, and
after a lot of experimentation. If anyone has a list that they think is top
notch...I would love to have it.
My macro works most of the time. Why, after I tell Word to Restart
Numbering (I have multiple lists in a row, separated by Headers) does Word
insist on continuing a list?
I refuse to not use the Bullets and Numbering feature. I will not manually
number my lists when I know darn well that there is going to be another step
added (there is, inevitably, always one more step).
I am sick of renumbering my entire document, or sections there of.
IS THERE A PATCH?
Thanks...
Frustrated and tired in Denver...Justin
