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:

Make Your Text Stand Out in Word 2010

If you want to make your Word 2010 document brighter, more colourful and more vibrant to look at then why not try using some text effects such as making your text glow.

Here's how,

Select the text then select the Home tab on the Ribbon, go to Font and select Text Effects, a menu will then pop up, select Glow then another menu will appear giving you various types of ''Glow''. If you want even more control over the type of ''Glow'' click Glow Options and you can tweak all you like until you reach the effect you want to make your document stand out.
