Toggling Header Numbering?

[ML]

Is it possible to create a macro or similar that will allow the user to
toggle numbering of styles? Like for them to be able to select if sections
should be numbered or not basically but still use the same styles for the
formatting of the headers.

Everything depends on whether or not the numbering that *follows* the
section number is linked to the section number itself.

Section 8
8.1
8.1.1

Based on your description it does not sound as if this is the case,
since an unnumbered section thrown into the middle of numbered sections
would produce this result:

Section
..1
..1.1

Assuming there's no linkage between the section number and the
numbering that follows it, you don't need a macro to solve the problem.
Use a LISTNUM or SEQ field for the numbering, and when there's no
section number, just don't use a field.

If this doesn't work for you, post again showing exactly what the
section numbering/subsequent numbering look like.
