Ole,

I just modified my script to your advice into:

enumaration = "1"
Me.txtFillText.Text = "."
sGap = " "
REM myActualParagraph.TextContents is "Headline Level 1"
myActualParagraph.InsertionPoints.Item(1).TextContents = enumeration &
Me.txtFillText.Text & sGap
MsgBox (myActualParagraph.TextContents)

So in ID the text is inserted as it should be ("1. Headline Level 1"), but
in the watch window and in the message box called it stays "Headline Level
1"... :-( Do you have any further advices?

Thanks alot,
Jens
