Remove auto-formatting without removing numbers

[neal]

I have a numbered list that is four pages long. To insert the document
into my CAD program I need to separate the document into four single
pages.

So... How do I remove the auto-number formatting without losing the
numbers?

If I separate the document into four individual documents (one page in
each) the numbering starts over at 1 for each page. I need to preserve
the number sequence. I basically need to dumb-down the document.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Neal,

You can turn the autonumbered stuff into plain text with a macro:

ActiveDocument.ConvertNumbersToText

You can just type that line of code into the immediate window (Alt+F11, Ctrl+G) and hit the Return key at the end of the line.

Regards,
Klaus
