Table row numbering

[David Rose]

I have created a table with 110 rows and have numbered the
rows using Format/Bullets and Numbering... I want the row
numbering to stay the same, even if I delete some rows
from the table. Is there a way that I can lock the row
numbering (like locking a field) so that if I, for
example, delete row 45, row 46 still remains numbered 46,
not renumbered to 45?

I could have sworn there was an article about this at www.mvps.org/word, but
I can't find it. Perhaps a post in microsoft.public.word.numbering?

I believe there is a way you can convert numbers or fields to text,
You can do it with a macro:

Selection.Range.ListFormat.ConvertNumbersToText (wdNumberParagraph)
changes the numbering in the selection to hard text.
