problem with paragraph numbering

[redline]

I am numbering paragraphs, which to me is a pain in the you know what in
Word. Having said, that I am doing it in single space. When I enter [two
returns to the next paragraph, it automatically goes off. It's bugging me!

Also, when I change from an alphabet to a number such as "i" it starts at
"ii".

Lastly, how can I stop it from indenting when I would prefer the test to wrap?
Please help

NOTE: I know how to use the paragraph format. These paragraphs are in
SINGLE space.

Line spacing has nothing to do with inter-paragraph spacing, which is
controlled by Spacing Before/After.
