PUB98: A Numbered List in a Table Spans Multiple Cells (179204)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Publisher 98

This article was previously published under Q179204

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Publisher 98, when you apply the numbered list Indent setting to a table with multiple cells, you may notice that each cell in the table includes a number from the same sequence.

This behavior is different than Publisher 97.

CAUSE

The text engine used by Publisher 98 does not provide the ability to have multiple different numbering start points per story.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, insert a paragraph mark at the beginning of a cell. This breaks the numbering sequence.

STATUS

This feature is under review and will be considered for inclusion in a future release. Microsoft welcomes suggestions or comments about changes in functionality and product design. You are invited to submit suggestions by filling out the form at the following Microsoft Web site:
