SUMMARY
When you upgrade from Microsoft Word 97 to Microsoft Word 2000, any customized outline numbered lists that you created for Word 97 successfully migrate to Word 2000. Word 2000 uses a new multiple-layered numbering system similar to outline numbering for all lists.

Customized simple bulleted and numbered lists do not migrate to Word 2000. However, all documents created with customized bulleted and numbered lists open as expected in Word 2000, and all list formatting is retained in these documents.



MORE INFORMATION
To re-create any customized bulleted or numbered lists, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the Format menu, click Bullets and Numbering.
 * 2) In the Bullets and Numbering dialog box, click the tab that you want.
 * 3) Click the style that you want to customize, and then click Customize.
 * 4) Create the style that you want, and then click OK.
