ListLevels Collection Object

Microsoft Word Visual Basic

ListLevels Collection Object

ListTemplate ListLevels
ListLevel
Multiple objects

A collection of ListLevel objects that represents all the list levels of a list template, either the only level for a bulleted or numbered list or one of the nine levels of an outline numbered list.

Using the ListLevels Collection

Use the ListLevels property to return the ListLevels collection. The following example sets the variable mytemp to the first list template in the active document and then modifies each level to use lowercase letters for its number style.

Set mytemp = ActiveDocument.ListTemplates(1)
For Each lev In mytemp.ListLevels
    lev.NumberStyle = wdListNumberStyleLowercaseLetter
Next lev
		

Use ListLevels(index), where index is a number from 1 through 9, to return a single ListLevel object. The following example sets list level one of list template one in the active document to start at four.

ActiveDocument.ListTemplates(1).ListLevels(1).StartAt = 4
		

Note  You cannot add new levels to a list template.

Remarks

To apply a list level, first identify the range or list, and then use the ApplyListTemplate method. Each tab at the beginning of the paragraph is translated into a list level. For example, a paragraph that begins with three tabs will become a level-three list paragraph after the ApplyListTemplate method is used.
