{ AUTONUMOUT }

Automatically numbers paragraphs in outline style. The AUTONUMOUT field is provided for compatibility with Microsoft Word 2000 or earlier versions.

 Note   It is recommended that you use the LISTNUM field in place of the AUTONUMOUT field when using Microsoft Office Word 2007, Word 2003, or Word 2002.

Use the built-in heading styles (heading style: Formatting applied to a heading. Microsoft Word has nine different built-in styles: Heading 1 through Heading 9.) to format headings in the document, and then insert an AUTONUMOUT field at the beginning of each heading paragraph. The numbers reflect the heading levels that correspond to the heading styles.

  Notes  

• You cannot manually update an AUTONUMOUT field.
• Word doesn't display the result of an AUTONUMOUT field if the field is nested within an IF field.
