Problem with multilevel list
Good morning, please I have a serious problem. I am doing my thesis, and for this I created a multilevel list, up to 5 levels.
Title 1 was: CHAPTER I:
Title 2 was: 1.1.
Title 3 was: 1.1.1.
Title 4 was: 1.1.1.1
Title 5 was: 1.1.1.1.1.
You can see below.
But suddenly I donĀ“t know what happened, after clicking here.
When I clicked there, that stick or black rectangle was put in place of what I had put. I feel like I lost all the work I did in one day editing the numbering and layout. I would greatly appreciate your help, please, to solve this problem.
Hello LuisElCaminante ,
The multilevel numbers are corrupted. This is a known issue. I had raised a request for a fix with Microsoft two years ago, and it was released - but in Word 2019. There seem to be different fix releases for different version.
This might help you:
MS Word heading styles are showing black boxes instead of numbers--how - Microsoft Community
Or, you could call your MS support - call, not write - and mention it to them saying it is years old issue, how they can help you fix it.
I hope this helps. Good luck.
