Is there a way to have a "Style" in Word 2001 for the Mac that is a
numbered paragraph but with the "List numbering" set to "Restart
numbering" rather than "Continue previous list"?

No matter what I try, including paying for a Microsoft consultation,
Word seems to continue to default to the "Continue previous list."
You'll notice that the "Restart numbering" option only appears under
"Format" / "Bullets and Numbering..."

I can't believe that the only styles available for numbered lists have
to have list numbering continue from the previous list.
