OMG Thank you so much. I just upgraded to Word 2007 from Word 2003. In Word 2003, I knew styles like the back of my hand; however, I couldn't figure out how to do this in Word 2007. My hat goes off to

THANK YOU! I had been searching for how to define a new list style and then tie that list style to "Heading 1, " "Heading 2" etc. so that it would format in the table of contents. This was perfect!

Thanks so much Lynda! I was confused about the first 2 or 3 steps but you've explained this so clearly. Thanks!

Thanks Lynda - brilliant video - very well explained - which I had seen it three years ago.  Would have avoided so many headaches.

This had just the information that I needed. Thank you!

Apologies if I missed something in understanding this tutorial. However, when you want to add multiple points at "Heading 2" level e.g. 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and so on, it does not work. Likewise, if we want to have numbers 2.1.1, 2.1.2 at heading 3 level, does not work as expected. Just make a minor change - just place the cursor at the start in the field "Enter formatting for number" before doing the "Legal Style Numbering" step

For example, instead of getting the correct Level 2 paragraph numbers as 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, etc, you would get 2.1, 3.1, 4.1.

Hey there - Ladycfalcon and LearningMoffice! Remember these are now based on styles. You must apply the correct style to the paragraph. Hope this helps!

Arnoldwilso - There are no specific templates but there is a template course I have on lynda.com. I come from a legal background as well.

man all the chicks that do these tutorials sound so HAWT!!!Your voice without a doubt is beautiful.

[tibofordeyn]

Thank you so much! I got so annoyed when my headings couldn't be listed properly!!

The author of this video makes some crucial mistakes, which is why some people are having problems. At 4.35, 5.05 and 5.22, when selecting from the Incude Level Number From drop-down menu, the author should have first moved the cursor to *in front* (left) of the existing grey field. If you follow her exact instructions your numbers will be back to front.

how about adding Section 2.1 after 1.1 thn 1.2 ?
