More on Word: how do you turn off automatic numbering?

Comment by lorihajost on July 1, 2008

I have looked in preferences but cannot find anywhere to disable auto numbering. We type price quotes with list of items and usually start with 1. Work automatically decides that we are starting a 1,2,3 list when it is not. This is very aggravating. please advise if you can. We are using Word 2007 for Mac.
