Hi Margaret

Another approach you might try uses chapter numbers but this only works if you are using an indb book and chapters are separate document files. In that case for your list level 1 you can use a numbered list with 01, 02 style and 1,2,3 style for list level 2, but for your list level 2 instead of ^1.^# it would be ^H.^#.

You can obviously only have one level 1 heading in each chapter file so that level 1 heading no.=chapter no., but this allows for more than 10 chapters, and also lets you generate a table of contents with the 01 / 1.01 format automatically.
