Hello,

I am using Openoffice writer version 2.0. I am trying to make an outlined list that starts at 2 ( and 3 and 4) instead of 1. For example, this is what I am trying to do:

3 Measured Results
3.1 Test Set-up
3.1.1 dsfgdfgdfg
3.1.2 sdfsdf
3.2 Feed Measurements
3.3 Ssdfsdfsdfsd
3.3.1 sdfsdfs
3.3.2 sdfsdfsd
3.4 sdfsdfsdf

You get the idea? I am using headings that are linked to numbering formats. The number format is set to start at 3, in this case, and it results in the following:

3.3
3.3.3
3.3.4
3.4
3.5

What am I doing wrong?? Attached is a sample file with my formating set-up.

Works fine for me. The list strips off attachments, so I can't look at your sample file, but here is how I have set it up in Tools > Outline Numbering:

For Level 1, paragraph style Heading 1 (or whatever you are using), Number 1,2,3, and Start at 3.

For Level 2, paragraph style Heading 2 (or whatever), Number 1,2,3, Show sublevels 2, Start at 1.

For Level 3, paragraph style Heading 3, Number 1,2,3, Show sublevels 3, Start at 1.

DO NOT attempt to combine this with any other form of paragraph numbering, for example on the Numbering tab of the Paragraph Style dialog.
