From: Kimmie B on 12 May 2010 16:42 Hello, I'm going through the transition from Word 2003 to 2007 and am having a devil of a time recreating the handy outline styles that I had in customized 2003. I want to create a multilevel list (not headings because these list items do not belong in the TOC) as described below that also appears in the style gallery. Intro to numbered list. Text, not numbered. (Level 1 of scheme) 1. It's on the second level of the numbering scheme that the first actually numbering occurs. a. This would be the third level of the numbering scheme. i. And this is the fourth level. In W2003 I had a darling custom toolbar with buttons for my various styles. Loved it! Worked like a dream. I had used Shauna Kelly's excellent instructions for setting up outline numbering with no numbering for my first level. Level 2 started with 1, level 3 with a, and so forth. However, Shauna's instructins, contrary to what the intro page indicates, seem not to be updated for W2007. Bottom line: How do I get the discrete levels of my numbering scheme to appear in the style gallery? Thanks in advance, Kimmie B
From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 12 May 2010 17:09 The process is really very similar in Word 2007, the principal difference being that you can't set up an outline-numbered list from the Format Style dialog for the Level 1 style (the Numbering dialog that you can access from the Modify Style dialog is not the one you need). Instead, you have to define the styles for the various levels first (everything except the numbering and related indents), then use Define New Multilevel list to set up the outline numbering, linking each level to the appropriate style. If you need to change anything about any of the levels (and this is the hard part), since there is no "Edit Multilevel List" choice, you have to select the list you already defined and use Define New Multilevel List to get back to it and make the changes. Once you get your head around the fact that "Define" isn't limited to defining, you'll do fine! -- Suzanne S.
