The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: Enhancement:
A user requested that WordPerfect 5.1 include the capability to restart outline numbering at the same level it was turned off. For example, if the outline was at letter C on level 2 when the Outline feature was turned off, a user would be able to restart the outline level at the same place.

Answer:
This can be done for all levels with the Starting Paragraph Number option in the Outline Define menu (Shift-F5, D, S). Also, different levels can be inserted into this option by separating the levels with a period. For example, to insert the new number of 3 for the first level and 5 for the second level, enter "3.5" into the Starting Paragraph Number option. (The actual characters that appear on the editing screen depend on the outline format chosen.)

If users would like to change some, but not all, levels of the outline numbering, they can enter "?" at the levels that are not to be changed. For example, if a user turns off Outline at the "I.B" level, and then wants to restart numbering later at the "I.E" level, "?.5" should be entered at the Starting Paragraph Number option. Also, users can turn Outline On and enter "?.?.?.?..." (up to eight levels if needed) to restart the numbering at the same level it was turned off.
