can't restart numbering

[BG]

i am using custom defined styles. one of them has numbering format that uses
roman numerals and another uses letters.

for some reason, I have to roman num parents that has their own children of
letters. when the children follows the letter sequence from the other
parent, i thought i could use restart numbering, but it doesn't work. to
recap, this is what it's doing: I (A - I) , II (J - L). it should be I(A -
I), II(A - C).

thank you in advance.

In order for the second list to restart after the first list style is used,
both styles should be in the same outline numbering scheme.

Go to http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html and
read about outline numbering and heading styles, and then set up your own
styles to work in the same way. You don't have to use HEADING 1 etc, you can
do this with any style, it's just that the built in heading styles already
have outline levels applied to them so it makes things a bit easier at first.
