Each time I start a new list, the numbering gets all flaky.

I'm working on a 300-page document that contains about 200 numbered lists explaining procedures. and that's it.Automatic numbering of lists is wonderful until it goes wrong, and then it's a screaming nightmare. You can use this for all following schedules now and if you use a Section Break - Next Page option between them it will keep working all the to the end of your document as A-1, A-2, B-1, B-2, etc. While still in your footer use keystrokes ALT+SHIFT+P to insert your page number - A-1 - in the centre of the footer at the bottom. Then go to you footer - edit> footer and select Page Number > Format Page Numbers> and select the Heading number you used - say Heading 7 - and stay there and select "Include Chapter number" and change the number to start at 1. Once you have that in place, format the Heading style as you normally would - i.e., bold, centered, caps, 12 pt after, single spaced, etc. into your footers is to use one of Word's default Headings - something like Heading 7 or Heading 8 or Heading 9, preferably one of those default Heading Styles that you or your firm rarely use.Įnter a title at the top of your section or page - for instance, SCHEDULE A - but using the Heading 7, 8 or 9 style for this. The best and easiest way to get A-1, etc. If not, and you can't immediately find an error, you may have to dig in to the nitty-gritties with the help of Microsoft's "Word Help and How-to" web pages on Field Codes, such as If all has gone well, you should now see what looks like the original table of contents, except that the appendices show A-1, B-1, C-1, etc.

In Field Codes, where it has entered SEQ, fill in the rest to read SEQ \appendix \* ALPHABETIC.

Delete the appendix letter and leave the cursor in that spot.

Whatever style it is, it must be different from what your TOC field is using to create entries for the main body of the document.įirst, on the title page of each appendix, replace the appendix letter (A, B, etc.) with a Sequence field that counts the times you've used the Appendix style in the document. It is dependent on the Style used for your appendix headings, so for the sake of illustration let's say you're using the Appendix style. You'll need a separate TOC field for the appendices, but it will look like only one. It works in Word 2003 and although it is by no means simple, it may be accomplished in 10-20 minutes if you're quite careful the first time. (Did anyone mention you'll need to start a new section for each appendix in order to have different prefixes?) However, to get your Table of Contents to display those prefixes you'll need a whole different technique. The preceding posts will get letter prefixes into your footers for you.
