Sounds intriguing Christine! I'm not sure I'd have the courage to = tackle MS logic.. :) Seriously tho, which version of Word was this for? - Naomi=09 -----Original Message----- I once researched all this when I thought I had time to master it, and = found that Word has a truly remarkable process for storing bullets and = numbering styles. After working out all the logic (and subsequently entirely forgetting it) I decided it was getting close to being impossible for = mere mortals (my users). I did however, get numbered headings working consistently for the document I was developing that did not have to be maintained by general users. If you have the time, and get all the rules, and have a few days to = spare to play with it all, you should be able to fix it. I think it was someone = on this list who gave me a link to a document that explained all the rules.
