*Regarding item 2 below:

I have been asking myself how to solve this situation:

Let us say I am at writing something on level 2 under "item B -   
level 1.
Now I don't want to have the same style on my level 2 items as is  
default by the style pallet.  Say I want to have numbers instead of  
default small  letters. So my question: Is it possible to change that  
in an easy way (like in MORE - I don't know if it is OK to mention  
that as bench-mark...  ;-)  ) by highlighing item B and instruct that  
his "children" should be "by numbers" regardless how many they will be..

Hope you understand my question

Best regards
Leif
