MORE INFORMATION
================
The Outline Numbered tab contains eight previews. One of the preview windows
contains no preview (denoted by the word "None"). Selecting this preview will
remove any numbering scheme applied to the current selection. The other previews
allow you to set different customized numbering schemes.
When your insertion point is in a numbered paragraph and you click the Outline
Numbered tab in the Bullets And Numbering dialog box (click Bullets And
Numbering on the Format menu), your custom number scheme should be selected but
it may not appear in the same preview box as it did on the original computer.
When your insertion point is not in a numbered paragraph and you click the
Outline Numbered tab in the Bullets And Numbering dialog box (click Bullets And
Numbering on the Format menu), the selected number scheme appears in the
top-left preview box instead of None and your customized numbering scheme may
not appear.
For additional information about moving a customized numbering scheme to another
computer, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

custom Outline Numbered list was applied.

scheme may appear in a different preview window on the Outline Numbered tab.

Format menu.
CAUSE
