I am trying to format my Word 2016 doc before I do a mail merge from an Excel spreadsheet. One section of my Word doc needs to be in a numbered list. When I format that particular section and the preview, the text begins at #2 and it adds an extra number w/out text next to it. I edit the numbered list in Preview Results mode, but it doesn't stick or edit the rest of the files.
Hi @Natali V ,
I suggest you upload a screenshot about your problem here, so that I can get more accurate solutions to this problem. I’m glad to help and follow up your reply.
The 1st SS is of the numbered list after I fix the initial merge preview. pic below The 2nd SS is of the second doc preview. There are no numbers. The last SS is when I go back to the 1st doc preview. The numbers are gone, too.
