list paragraphs

[david]

I have a perplexing problem and am struggling to come up
with a good solution to it.

I have a macro that reads the paragraph numbers from each
list paragraph in the document and puts them into an
array, I need this information to be in full context ie.

1. this is the text
1.2 this is the text
(a) this is the text
Ths full context of this paragraph is 1.2(a)

The only way I have currently been able to do this is to
insert a cross reference into the document and then read
the selected text into a variable, this is messy and time
consuming, I am hoping someone will know a better way of
getting this information, any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks
David
