Writing agreements, numbering in word is a must. If you work from a version\u00a0inherited by the counterpart or is copy and paste from many sources, the styles are typically chaos. And the functionality itself can make you go totally bananas. (Go “Bonkers” as it was said in another guide – I agree!)<\/p>\n

First<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Ensure you have a working multi numbering list that is associated with the relevant styles. My Word is in Swedish, but I’m sure you can find it using the picture below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You right click and select Modify on an existing one, or simply add a new by using that option in the menu indicated by the down arrow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Give your list a name, and then use the lower left drop down menu and select the numbering option.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is what you see after selecting the numbering options. Key: Connect a relevant format template to the list level.<\/p>\n

If this didn’t help you, I can optionally divert you to this nice page<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Next<\/strong><\/h1>\n

There is one thing I also need to show, as this is what I explored today.<\/p>\n

Sometimes in agreements, there is a requirement to number each paragraph, and they need to inherit the numbering from the Heading level. So there might be a heading 2 that has heading 3 under it, but there is also actual text blocks that has a numbering that shall be in line with the heading 2 and heading 3. The picture below illustrates what I wanted to achieve.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In order to do this, you create styles that inherit from the respective headings. In my case I created two styles called “Stycke 2” and “Stycke 3”. Access the style viewer here:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So my text with the styles:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Adding a new style is using the lower left icon (the two As mating under the sun). I now create a “Stycke 3” (swedish for Paragraph 3) which is based on Heading 3. This means that text that should be using the same numbering (x.x.x) as Heading 3, should use Stycke 3 and it all worls great.
