• List numbering follies – Part 2

    I use Word 97. I have a problem similar to the one “writer” has/had.

    I am using styles for formatting paragraphs and numbering. The styles work sometimes and don’t other times. As an example, what I need is the following:

    (A) Major Subject
    “indent” (1) First subSubject
    “indent” (2) Second subSubject
    “indent””indent” (i) First subsub
    “indent””indent” (ii) Second subsub
    “indent” (3) Third subSubject
    ( Second Major Subject
    “indent” (1) First subSubject
    “indent” (2) Second subSubject

    This is what I want, but what I get, sometimes, is, under (, instead of a (1), I get a (4).

    When I try to start the numbering at (1) using the correct style, I may get (1), but it changes the paragraph format or it leaves it at (4).

    I feel like an idiot. Maybe I need a macro like was posted for “writer”, but I would think that Word 97 wouldn’t behave this way. Am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks.
