Headings: numbering levels

[john t.]

Hallo,
Thought I'd mastered headings. My book(!)uses three
levels, Chapters (numbered); Heading 2 is alphabetic by
title and therefore unnumbered; Heading 3 is A,B,C (or
1,2,3 - that does not matter), but should begin at A again
after each heading 2 level.
Example:
1. FRUITS (heading 1)

Apples (heading 2)
A. French apples (heading 3)
B. English apples (heading 3)

Pears (heading 2)
A. Oriental pears

Problem: I cannot get Heading 3 to commence at A after
each sublevel 2 unless I number heading 2 in one form or
another. In other words, heading 3 continues D,E...
Thought I'd tried everything! Any suggestions please?
john

Hi John

You need to include Heading 2 in the numbering scheme (with no number
printing), and restart Heading 3 after it.

To set this up, work on the entire scheme from the Numbering of your Chapter
style (you'd do well to use Heading 1 for this), linking levels 2 (no
number) and 3 (A, B, C ...) to the Heading 2 and 3 styles respectively.

See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html for full
insturctions and explanations of this process.

Hope this helps
