Is it possible to continue a numbered list from slide to slide. For example,
Slide 1 has
A.
B.
C.
D.
Slide two should start with E.

I know I can go to Format|Bullets and Numbering and choose Start at E, but
that doesn't automatically change if anything is changed in the previous
slide. It seems that one would always have to go back and manually change the
numbering or lettering scheme. Is that the case or is there a solution to
this? Many thanks. - Andrew

Andrew, No way to do this through normal interface. Could be do-able
with VBA code though.

Thanks for the answer Brian. I don't think I want to work on any code for
this but wanted to make sure there wasn't an option or preference I was
overlooking before spending too much time on it. Thanks again. - Andrew

No need to use VBA for this, simply create your second slide and add another numbered list. Then, right click on the line and click on "Restart Numbering". Simply add "E" or "5" and the numbered list will being from there.

Brilliant! I kept manually doing this losing all formatting every time. Thank you!
