Hi TJ-- I corrected the errors you noted, except that I have some unwanted bullets on the sample outline. The coding is something I'll catch on to I suppose--I'll try. In this case, for the first (errant) version I did use the outline procedure in Writer as described, and I used the extension (SWP) to export it, then I opened the text file in Wordpad, cut and pasted to the wiki. I had not noticed that it numbered the outline differently, but it sure did.
For now I'll try some more FAQs and put up notes on this list when done. Replies such as yours are always welcome.
