How can I re-number a list using Microsoft Word? For example lets say I have a numbered list of ten items and I insert a new item after #5 and want the reamainder of the list to be re-numbered to reflect the addition to the list.
What I just did as a reminder for myself before writing the instructions was this:
Made a list of 6 words, then highlight that list of words and click the numbering button in the menu tool bar.
This numbers the items.
I then went back, placed my cursor at the end of item number 3 in the list and hit enter and then typed the additional item. This inserted a new line and renumbered the list.
That worked for both a single and double spaced list.
If you don't have numbering on the toolbar, you can right click on the highlighted selection and select numbers from the numbers and bullets there.
