How to start the CHAPTER numbering from an arbitray number?

[qquito]

Hello, All:

I use Microsoft Word 2008 for Mac, Version 12.1.1 (080522).

And I am writing Chapters 9 and 10 of a report which is being written
by a team of several members.

So how do I start the chapter numbering from 9 so that the following
chapter will automatically be 10?

P.S.: I have read somewhere that one could right-click the 1st chapter
number and select "Start At" and then input the desired number. But in
my case, when I right-click the 1st chapter number, I see "Restart
Numbering" and "Continue Numbering" among other things, but not "Star
At".

Also, I got my chapters numbered using "Format" -> "Bullets and
Numbering ..." -> "Outline Numbered".

Thank you for reading and replying!

At Format | Bullet and Numbering | Outline Numbered, click Customize. In the
Customize Outline Numbered List dialog, you can set the starting number.
