I have a document with a numbered list in it. Each entry was originally a single line, but as I have developed the document, I’ve decided that each entry needs additional explanation, and those explanations potentially run into multiple paragraphs.
I want to keep the numbering as it is. Word seems to assume that one number equals one paragraph. The only way I’ve found on my own to keep the numbering the way I want it is to individually number the “one-liners”, and just format the entire collection to look as though it’s a numbered list, without actually being one from Word’s point of view. The problem with this is that I would have to manually renumber if I decide to rearrange the entries.
Is there a way to have a group of paragraphs treated as a single entry in a numbered list, with the number only appearing with the first paragraph?
Example:
1. Entry One, first paragraph
Entry One, second paragraph
Entry One, third paragraph
2. Entry Two, first paragraph
Entry Two, second paragraph
3. Entry Three, only paragraph
4. Entry Four, first paragraph
…and so on.
