Even though you say that this particular style is not part of an outline list, the example in your document is a situation where you really should be using an outline (multilevel) list: You’ve got:

This is exactly where you want to use a multilevel list – if you do so, then the little “i.” will always automatically restart after each instance of a style of the next higher level.

… you could set up a separate multilevel list to handle your informal lists. That would take care of the restarts as Gary suggests. I would link them to the built-in list number styles though.

The main problem (for me) with this suggestion is that I haven’t come to terms with how multilevele lists are managed in Word 2007. I could manage them with (relative) ease in 2003, but 2007 seems to have made it _really_ difficult to create and manage multilevel list styles.

This sounds like you are using a single outline list for the two styles but sometimes you are starting a list at the second level. This can present problems with the way the Word controls the indents and the numbering.

If an outline list is what is now known as a multilevel list, then the particular style in question is not an outline list. I am using the single style, and there is only a single level, but the particular document I am creating requires roman numbering rather than arabic for the paragraphs. Then I want to restart the numbering on a subsequent use of the style further down in the document.

Perhaps it would help if you could post a copy of a sample file so we can see how your styles are constructed with regards to the outline lists. Put in some sample text so we can see how you want to use the styles.

Well here is a sample if it helps.

Declare MyArray as Variant instead of Double:

Dim FS As Integer, LS As Integer, i As Integer, SCnt As Integer, MyArray() As Variant

Excellent, thanks Hans. That seems to work exactly as required.

I guess it’s obvious when you know how. I will note it down for the future reference.

Thank you! That’s exactly what I wanted to know.

Excellent, thanks Hans

Thanks for that advice.

I put the AutoExec() macro in Normal.dot, and get the reviewing toolbar when I first open Word, either with a blank document or by double clicking on an existing document. However, all subsequent documents opened without the reviewing toolbar.

I finally worked out how to put the line
CommandBars(“Reviewing”).Visible = True
in the Document_Open and Document_New event procedures, (more by trial and error than anything else!) and now subsequent documents based on Normal.dot open with the reviewing toolbar.

** I have a couple of other templates that I use frequently, am I right in assuming that if I put that line in the Document_Open and Document_New procedures in those templates I will get my toolbar for documents based on them too? It /seems/ to work that way.

Thanks again
Robin

I have the same problem in Word 2000 – do you know if the solution is the same?
