Re: Numbering paragraphs in the left margin;not lines "Kris" <kkern[ at ]dkattorneys.com> 03.03.2006 14:25:32 Hi, That is not quite what I was after. The document already includes a numbering scheme using heading styles. I am looking to place numbers in the left margin for each paragraph so they can be referred to during discussions. This would be numbering paragraphs with heading styles and without heading styles.

Re: Numbering paragraphs in the left margin;not lines "Charles Kenyon" <wordfaq[ at ]nospam.addbalance.com> 03.03.2006 15:00:25 Well, it is a lot more work, but see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/MarginalText.htm. That may do what you need. It isn't automatic, but it works. You could create an AutoText entry with a frame and a SEQ field. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
