>> Software is XP pro and Word 2003:
>> I have set up 3 different types of customised outline numbering in styles
>> (all linked to heading 1 so they can go into document map) and added to
>> the
>> template so these are available for all documents. Also a variety of
>> heading
>> styles and bullet lists etc - all added to template. Each style has a
>> shortcut assigned to it. This client (legal firm) need one set of
>> numbering
>> to be unusal and would so appreciate help with how to do this please.
>> The one of set needs the 1st level numbering to be centered on the page
>> and
>> have no text next to it - no text is fine as I have told them enter a
>> space
>> after the numbering starts so when they enter the number does not drop.
>> From
>> level 2 on is fine as those are aligned to left margin with normal
>> indents
>> from then. My problem is they want this all automated - Level One to be
>> automated that when they use the assigned shortcut e.g. Alt+NA the first
>> number will go to the centre with a space after it and 2nd level
>> automatically go align to left margin so that they can just start typing
>> with
>> no other formatting commands. From what I know Outline numbering aligns
>> to
>> the left of the page and indents the various levels as they are set.
>> There is
>> no option to set the number to be in the middle of the page. There is the
>> option for a number position to be left centre of right, but that is
>> still
>> against the left margin.
>> Advice would be greatly appreciated. Sorry this was such a looong
>> explanation.
