Re: Header numbering that spans multiple lines

Hi,

[Microsoft Word 2011 for Mac]

create your list style and paragraph styles (as described here:
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/numbering20072010.html).
However, for level 1 you have to choose in the dialog box "Modify
Multilevel List" in the field "Follow number with" the entry "Nothing"
(instead of "Tab character").
And, when applying "Heading 1" to your paragraph, you have to insert
the manual break manually (Shift + Enter).

Add the \x switch to your TOC field, as described here:

Hope, it works for Word for MAC...

Another approach is to use two separate styles; see
