Your chapter numbers will reset to show the correct number of chapters. Note: If you have any problems with word automatically adding outline numbering to parts of your front matter, simply delete it. To follow the automatically generated chapter number with the title of your chapter on a new line, click just before the text of your title, hold down the Shift key on the keyboard, and then press the Enter key.If you typed in the text вЂњChapter #вЂќ, and now it is duplicating your efforts, delete the text you typed and leave the automatically generated chapter number.Note that doing this once sets the formatting for all heading levels. If you need subsections numbered (for example, 2.1, 2.2, 2.12, etc.) as well, then choose the list the 1 Heading 1 1.1 Heading 2, etc. If you just need the chapter number included in captions, on the On the Home Ribbon, in the Paragraph Group, click the Multilevel List icon and select the one with the words Chapter 1 in it from the List Library section.Make sure each of your chapter titles are in the Heading 1 style, and then click on one of your chapter titles.Word can automatically number sections (Chapter 1, 1.1, 1.2, etc.) of your document and include the chapter number in the captions (Figure 1.2, 2.2, etc.). Important Note: Not everyone needs this type of numbering if your discipline doesnвЂ™t require it, skip this section!
