Hi All,

I've created a template which works just fine, with the following exception.
The Outline Numbering keeps changing format whenever I create a new list and
restart from the #1.

I have created a different style for every level in the Outline, as follows:
list1
list2
list3
list4

They are all assigned properly in the Bullets and Numbering dialog box
(using the Customize option).
The Styles were formatted and set from there (not using the Paragraph
formatting).

Whenever I apply the style ot the list all is fine, until I make a new list
and have to restart the numbering.

Here is what happens:

list1 applied (before restarting numbering): Left, Aligned at: 0.25"; Tab
space after .5" and Indent at .5"

I click restart numbering for that list item - everything (including in the
Template) changes and moves the indenting in by .25" for ALL of the outline
numbered styles.

I've searched the MVP site, to no avail..

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Deborah
