LISTNUM with multiple lists in Word 2003
I am having issues using multiple lists with the LISTNUM field in Word 2003. I have broken the issue down to a simple replicatable case. I insert 2 LISTNUM fields, each on a different line. I then name the first list "Test" and the second list "Test2". At this point the fields are "1)" and "2)". I then change the format of the the second one using the "Bullets and Numbering" dialog (for ...

I have the front matter and body of the manuscript numbered differently, but of the ten pages of front matter, I need the first two pages and last two pages of it unnumbered. How can I do that?

I insert page numbers, "not on first page"...and my header disappe
My letterhead template is set up to have a logo/address that appears only on the first page of a Word document. After the first page, there's a section break after which I have "unlinked" the header from page 1, and erased the logo/address. So far, so good. If I insert page numbers to appear on ALL the pages, everything works as it should. So far, good. But when I try to insert a p...

Item numbering keeps reverting to continuous
I have numbered items on every other page of my document. As I proceed through the editing process, I meticulously (I think) define the numbering through "styles and formatting", and turn off the modify option. However, many (sometimes, not all) of the numbering reverts to continuous at some (unknown) later stage in my editing. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. It usually means that I...

Numbering Issues
I was brought a document to get the proper numbers on each page. When ever I go to start a new section it continues off the old numbering. I can't get it to change this. I am currently at 117(j). I need to go 118(a-i). If I go to the next page and put 118 in, it puts it all through the 117's. I have a 124 pages to fix, and section 118, I can hopefully get this fixed as I think it ...

Word 03 - {PAGE } no matter what I try
Hello, I am trying to set page numbers in a document in Word 2003. I go into Insert>Page Numbers, say where I want them, and then click on Format to tell it what style of numbers and what number to start. All that happens is that {PAGE } appears on each page. So I read this newsgroup for a while and I got to http://word.mvps.org/faqs/numbering/PageNumbering.htm which, under Big Idea ...

Cross-reference problem
I am having troubles corss referencing items in Word 2007. I previously had Office 2007 installed and then had a hdd crash after which I had to reinstall everything on the new drive. Since then whenever I go to insert a cross-reference the "Item" option in the Reference Type drop down list has disappeared. I am not sure if this is due to a setup issue or some other setting I have / have ...

Formatting of LISTNUM in Word 2007
I am using the field LISTNUM to number equations in my Word 2007 document. It appears that the default format for LISTNUM is “1)” with the right parenthesis included. I have right clicked on the number field and defined a new format so that the number will appear only as “1” without the parenthesis. This works as long as I have the document open. However, if I close the docum...

Numbered lists resets to "continue numbering"
I have defined the NL style for numbered lists. It always wants to continue numbering from the previous list rather than restarting numbering at 1 for each new list. If I right-click, select Bullets and Numbering, then turn on the Restart Numbering option, it resets to Continue as soon as I close the dialog box. What gives - any ideas? Thanks. -- Peter Aitken...

Numbered Normals extend past right margin
I'm working on a doc that first came to me with everything as Normal style, modified by hand. I'm adding and applying new styles to it and generally it is okay, except for one thing: Any Normal paragraph that has a number as the first character extends past the right margin, apparently forever (meaning even very long paragraphs don't wrap). These are numbered paragraphs, and usually ...
