Bulleted Lists

S

Susang

Hi, I am trying to renumber a bulleted list but it is linked with a previous bulleted list. All attempts to disassociate the linkage has failed. I have deleted the bulleted items, added them back and they still link to a previous list. The style name is the same for both but I have used the same style name for other lists in the same document without this problem. Any ideas

Hi Susang

If the numbering is coming from the style then it will be linked for all
paragraphs of that style. You can restart the numbering on a particular list
(probably what you have done on the lists that are 'unlinked'), but that
will apply the numbering as direct formatting.

For a discussion of the problem and various solutions, see
