What Are Snapnumbers?

Snapnumbers provide a flexible, stable alternative to Word's built-in paragraph numbering feature. They are not linked to styles, so they can be used anywhere in a document, regardless of formatting considerations. Simply type text normally -- tabbing, indenting, and formatting as desired -- then when you want to insert a Snapnumber choose Level 1 through Level 9 from the Snapnumbers menu (or use a shortcut keystroke).

In this sample document, Level 1 is uppercase Roman (I, II, III), Level 2 is uppercase alpha (A, B, C), and Level 3 is Arabic (1, 2, 3). So you would use a Level 1 Snapnumber for the "I." and "II."; Level 2 for the "A.", "B.", and "C."; and Level 3 for the "1." and "2."
