So you have a heap of headings in your document.  One way to make communicating with others about your document a whole lot easier is to add numbers to each of your headings.

You know what I mean… “John, take a look at section 4.2 and let me know what you think!”

Well it is really easy to add numbers to your headings in Word 2007 – as long as you have used your heading styles properly!

All you need to do is:

1)  Make sure you are on the “Home” tab in the Ribbon

2) Look for the “Paragraph” group

3) Look for the “Multi-Level List” button.  You will find it beside the “Numbering” button – chances are it is the third from the left in the top row.  Click on that button

4) Select your preferred heading numbering style from the list library.

There you have it, some awesome looking numbered headings, and a lot less headaches!

‘till next time!
