How to create paragraph number that changes with section number
Hi,
I am trying to create a doc where my paragraph numbering will change as per section number.
in section 1, the paragraph number will look like 0101, 0102, 0103, 0104, 0105 ...
In section 2, they will look like 0201, 0202, 0203, 0204...
raiyan38 Use the Define new Multilevel list facility to set up a list with numbering style 01,02,03 for the first level which you need to link to the Heading 1 Style, and have the Level 2 numbering include the number from level 1 and have its numbering style also as 01,02,03
Then start each Section with a paragraph in the Heading 1 style and use the Heading 2 style for the paragraphs to which you want to assign that numbering.
Any adjustments required to the position of the numbering and the indents must be made in the Define new Multilevel list dialog.
