Numbering

When I am working on a document created by someone else, who has apparently used automatic numbering, how can I turn this off without losing the existing numbered parts?

RE: numbering

Dear Helen

Thank you for attending Word Intermediate course. I hope you enjoyed the course.

I would assume that the document that you are working on has a continuous list where the Automatic Numbering has been applied.

Click after the last item that has numbering and press Enter twice. This should stop the auto numbering without affecting the existing numbering that is in the document.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to answer that!!

Kindest Regards

Word tip:

Now you see it, now you don't - hidden text in Word

Did you know you can choose to temporarily hide text in a Word document? The text is still part of the document, but it won't appear on screen unless you choose to have it displayed.

Here's how:

1. Highlight (select) the text you wish to hide.

2. Go to Format - Font.

3. In the Effects section of the Font dialogue box, tick 'Hidden'.

4. Click OK.

The portion of text you have chosen to hide should no longer be visible on your screen, unless you have the Show/Hide button turned on.

If you can see the hidden text in your document, and you haven't got the Show/Hide button turned on then:

1. Go to Tools - Options - View.

2. Under the 'Formatting marks' section, deselect Hidden text.

5. Click OK.
