How do I correct heading numbering?
UPDATE: I couldn't remove this post, after I discovered the issue. Thanks! I need to update heading numbering within an old document. Custom headings were made (as pictured) but I need the heading levels 2 and 3 to include the parent heading number of each. When I attempt to update the level 2 heading for Section 2, it wants to continue with Section 1 (see pictured example). In the number format, I do not know how to tell Word to include the parent numbers? I included "1." thinking it was intelligent enough to know that was just a format designation of the parent heading, but I guess that isn't how. I realize I may be making some glaring mistakes, but just trying to get it right. So this is a learning moment. The caveat here is that I'm not creating the heading from scratch but rather, trying to update the existing document headings. I did follow some online suggestions but none of them addressed including the parent value in this scenario. Section 2 <Heading Level 1 text format> <-- Here I need the word "Section" to proceed the level 1 heading number 2.1 <Heading Level 2> <-- Here I need the level 2 heading to include the parent section level number 2.1.1 <Heading Level 3> <-- Here I need the level 3 heading to include level 1 and 2 numbers.
Headings Ignored For cross Reference Selection
Running Word 2019 Office Professional. I'm trying to insert a cross reference from one part of my document to another using a heading type. I highlighted the "destination" text and under the HOME tab selected the Intense Emphasis style from the Styles section (as per help "Add a heading). I then went to where I wanted to insert the cross reference, and added the text I want to use to launch the cross reference. I then highlighted the "source" text and from the INSERT tab selected Cross Reference. When the cross reference interface opens there are no headings displayed in the "For Which heading" box. I have multiple numbered lists in my document that do show up if I change the reference type to numbered list.
