Hi Angie,
How are html headings inserted into Word?  I am new to Word 2007, and am 
still loathing it.  I did learn how to get into outline mode, but now only 
know how to indent back and forth, and have not learned the intricacies of 
the autonumbering.  Anyway, the html headings sound compelling but I am 
clueless as how to do it.  Thanks!

Jay
