Numbering Lines and Paragraphs

N

NicoleS

I'm using MS 2007.

I'd like to number the lines of a doc, but restart the numbering with each
new paragraph.

The only options I see are:
Continuous
Restart Each Page
Restart Each Section
Suppress for Current Paragraph

Is there any way I can change the settings, short of making every paragraph
it's own section?

(I'm doing some editing for a project and we use shorthand to reference
where to make changes, such as: P10 L15 [paragraph 10 line 15])

Thanks!

To clarify... I also need the line numbering to start new at each paragraph
so in the example (P10 L15 [paragraph 10 line 15]) that would be the 15th
line of the 10th paragraph - not the 15th line of the entire document.
Hoping someone can help me so I don't have to always print a copy & number
by hand!

I'm afraid what you are asking isn't possible in Word.
