Need to tailor field code numbering in document

[JZJenn]

I'm working with a document that uses numbered requirements; e.g., every time
the word "shall" appears, it must be followed by an automatic number. The
preferred format is to include an indicator WITH the number. So the
statement should look like so: "the system shall (IND 1) do such and
such..." where (IND 1) is all part of the field code. I can get to Quick
Parts, Field, Numbering, and ListNum, but none of the options at that point
seem to let me set the IND or the parens around the number. Does anyone know
how to do this? I'm sure it must be an easy fix I've just missed somehow.
Thanks!

You can use a SEQ field to create the sequential number. To automatically
insert this number, you can create a formatted AutoCorrect entry.

1. The first step is to insert an "example item" as follows:

shall (IND 1)

where "1" is the number inserted by the SEQ field. You can insert the field
via Insert | Quick Parts | Field, or you can add it manually (press Ctrl+F9,
type SEQ myseq, press F9 to update).

2. Select "shall (IND 1)"; be sure not to include the paragraph mark at the
end. This will be easier if you add some spaces between the ")" and the end
of the paragraph.

3. Click the Office button, and then click Word Options. In the Proofing
category, click AutoCorrect Options.

4. On the AutoCorrect tab, make sure that "Formatted text" is selected at
the "With" box. In the "Replace" box, type shall.

5. Click Add, and then click OK twice.

6. When/if you are prompted to save the Normal template, choose to do so.
