- While writing, a need is frequently felt to number the paragraphs. Microsoft Word allows you to do this quite simply by several means. The first is to give the software a clue that you want to do so - start your paragraph by typing “1.” Follow that by pressing Tab, and then tying your content. When the para is over, press Enter and the next para should automatically start with “2.” If the system is acting stupid and does not go ahead, try numbering the second para yourself and then the 3rd should be automatic. The second method is to type a few words of your first para, right click somewhere and select the option of Numbering. This gives you a number of options – instead of 1., 2., you might prefer the style of say a), b) or any other available. The third option is to find Numbering on your Menu or toolbar.
- There is also a provision to do Multilevel numbering i.e. paragraph 1. can have sub paras a, b, c, etc. Try using Tab and Shift alonqwith Tab to move between the various levels.
- Instead of using numbering, sub-paras can be identified by Bullets – once again right click on the para and select Bullets. You can also select the symbol or style that marks the sub-paras.
It’s actually quite simple, do try it.
