Word 2003 - Incrementing outline numbering by other than 1?

F

Fig

I'm trying to increment my level 2 headings in steps of 5:

101
101.100
101.100.1
101.100.2
101.105
101.105.1
101.105.2
etc...

Is this possible with Word 2003?

You would need to use a combination of SET and SEQ fields

{ SET A "100" }{SET B "5" }{ = A + B * ({SEQ TEST } - 1) } - will give 100

the next time you insert

{ = A + B * ({SEQ TEST } - 1) } you will get 105

and each succeding insert of

{ = A + B * ({SEQ TEST } - 1) } will increment the number by 5

You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters.
