Hi Eleonore

Thanks for your question. On the Home ribbon take a look at the Multi level numbering button (just to the right of the regular numbered bullet list button)

From the dialogue box that opens click Define Multilevel list then More (bottom left corner of the dialogue box)

You can now create a numbered and lettered bullet style and associate it with a heading style using the drop down box labelled Link level to style.

I hope this helps - do let me know how you get on.

Kind regards,
Andrew

RE: formatting

Thanks for that Andrew. But for some reason i can't get it to follow on from the previous level.

I want level one to be 1, 2, 3
level 2 to be 1.1, 1.2, or 2.2, 2.3 etc
level 3 to follow on from level 2 and be 1.1.2 or 2.2.1 etc...
But it doesn't want to do it.


Thanks

RE: formatting

Hi Eleonore

How are things with numbered lists? I wondered if another thing to look at is multi-level lists. If you look at the paragraph group on the Home ribbon there are three bullet list buttons. The first is bullets, the second numbered and the third is Multilevel. Click the drop down arrow beside the multilevel button and you can then use one of the presets or click Define new multilevel list to create your own.

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Word tip:

Change the Print button so it brings up the Print dialogue box

If you want to bring up the Print dialogue box to check your print settings when you hit the Print button, do the following:

1. Right-click on the toolbar that displays the Print button.

2. Select Customise.

3. Click on the Print button on the toolbar to select it, then hold the left mouse button down and drag the button towards the screen below. The button should come off the toolbar.

4. In the Customise dialogue box on your screen, select the Commands tab.

5. Select File from the Categories list, and then locate the Print... icon (looks like the normal Print button, but the word Print has three dots following it).

6. Click on the Print... icon to select it, then use your left mouse to drag and drop the icon onto the toolbar at the top of the screen.

7. Close the Customise dialogue box.
