Auto Numbering Snafu

Hello Gurus:

I have been experiencing an auto numbering situation – quite frequently.
Let’s say I have used the same numbering scheme throughout an entire
document. However, there have been times when the auto numbering or outline
numbering has gone awry.

When I pick a location within the affected area and view the numbering setup
via the *Bullets and Numbering* menu, I find that the numbering set-up for
the affected area is highlighted in one of the other seven available layout
panels within the menu instead of the original panel with the original
numbering setup.

It is almost as though the original numbering set-up panel has arbitrarily
replicated itself and created a new panel with the same numbering setup, but
additionally with something that is not quite right; perhaps the fonts on the
2nd, 3rd and/or 4th level have changed from *Times New Roman* to *Playbill*
or something just as odd.

If any one of you can understand either my question or my dilemma and has an
explanation or solution, I would be very appreciative.

Thanking you in advance, I remain…

Very truly yours - Rod

Hello Stefan.

As always, thank you so very much for your response to my question.
However, if I understand your response correctly, I am doing precisely what
you've indicated should be done.

For example, in my number setup, I use the built-in heading styles for my
individual levels and customize them accordingly. Heading 1 - first level;
Heading 2 - second level, so forth and so on.

However, I continue to experience the situation as outlined in my original
question.

Much appreciation to you - Rod
