MS Word 2000 Numbering Problem

[Beth Brooks <beth -dot- brooks -at- patmedia -dot- net>]

Hi, All! 

A quick but heartfelt thanks to those of you who responded to my earlier questions 
about MS word. Althought I'm still trying to figure out why users can only use the 
spots I set up using Macrobutton NoMacro when the hidden text is 
showing, your combined wisdom helped me a great deal. 

Now, on to the next template. 

My client is a pharmaceutical company. I'm preparing a word template that must 
adhere to some pretty rigid guidelines. Among them is a standardized set of 
numbered Headings that look (in part) something like this: 

2.0 Section Title 
2.1 TOC for section 
2.2 Intro 
2.3 
2.3.S 
2.3.S.1 
2.3.S.2 
2.3.P 
2.3.P.1 
2.3.P.2 
2.3.A 
2.3.A.1 
2.3.A.2 
2.3.R 
2.4 
2.4.1 
2.4.2... 

I've followed the MVPS site's recommendations for setting up outline-numbered 
headings, but I haven't seen anything that looked like this before, and the 
attempts I've made to automate this have not worked. There are actually 6 levels of 
head in use in the document, so the example above is simplified. The letters are 
NOT used in some sections of the document. Also, the temaplate needs to take into 
account the fact that there may well be different categories of content within each 
section that repeat the headings, like this: 

2.0 Section Title 
2.1 TOC for section 
2.2 Intro 
2.3 
2.3.S Overview for Disease 1 
2.3.S.1 Pharmacology for Disease 1 
2.3.S.2 Pharmacokinetics for Disease 1 
2.3.S Overview for Disease 2 
2.3.S.1 Pharmacology for Disease 2 
2.3.S.2 Pharmacokinetics for Disease 2 
.... 

The content developers using this template cannot be assumed to know much about 
Word at all, so I need to make this as easy for them as possible. 

Any thoughts? 

Thanks!
