hi folks,

here's a question about some some complex automated numbering I'd like
to do in writer:

I have a course syllabus which always changes a bit from year to
year -- I move lectures and tutorials around.  The syllabus follows a
format a bit like this:

Week 1: The French Revolution 
Lecture 1: Origins of the FR
Lecture 2: Consequences of the FR

Week 2: New Ideologies
Lecture 3: Liberalism
Lecture 4: Nationalism

Tutorial 1: Interpreting sources

Week 3: ....


etc.  So you see, I have 3 seperate numbering schemes running
concurrently.  Since the outlining scheme in OOo is hierarchical, I
don't seem to be able to do precisely what I want using it.  Instead,
using outline styles and numbering, I can get this:

Week 2:  New Ideologies
Lecture 2.1: Liberalism
Lecture 2.2: Nationalism

Tutorial: Interpreting sources

... but that's the best I can manage.  Anyone know if there's a way to
do precisely what I want?  I am btw using 1.9.114 right now -- am trying to
stick to the odt format for the future.  

THanks as always,
matt
