Go Multilevel List drop-down menu, 4. in May 2015 seemed very long too as I struggled with an existent Word template that instead of sub section 1.2 led me to 2.1 after 1.1. When I did that, then saved my doc as a template, then created a new doc based on that template, I was able to assign the List Number styles and get Like Section 2 2.1.1, Section 3 3.1.1, without making a new style for every section?

- Thanks for the tutorial!

You are done. 11. Similarly, you can keep adding levels as needed. Wish I'd found it earlier.
