MS Office 2007 - Multilevel List help needed

CLonergan · 05-19-2009, 08:31 AM

I'm trying to type out a multilevel list for a class.

In previous versions, when you type the first level, say "I. Intro to Psych", you'd press enter and it would automatically continue with "II." You could hit the Tab button, and it would convert to "A.", or whatever you specified.

Now, when I press enter to go to the next line, my multilevel list reverts to plain text. I've tried many different things, but it will not automatically continue my list.

Found this under "Create a bulleted or numbered list" using "lists" as my help search keyword:

If bullets and numbering do not begin automatically
Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click Word Options.
Click Proofing.
Click AutoCorrect Options, and then click the AutoFormat As You Type tab.
Under Apply as you type, select the Automatic bulleted lists check box and the Automatic numbered lists check box.
