SUMMARYThe line-numbering function in Microsoft Word for Windows cannot display odd numbers when incremented by two. For example, you cannot create the line-numbering scheme one, three, five, and so on; however, you can create the line-numbering scheme two, four, six, and so on. MORE INFORMATION
In Word for Windows version 2.0, when you choose Section Layout from
the Format menu and choose the Line Numbers button, you can specify
what number to start the line numbering at. (In Word for Windows
version 1.x, activate line numbering by choosing Section from the
Format menu and selecting the Line Numbering option.) If you type 1 in
the Start At # box and type 2 in the Count By box, Word for Windows
starts numbering lines with the number 2. The next number is 4, and so
on. This generates the same results as typing 2 in the Start At # box
and 2 in the Count By box. The value in the Count By box provides the
interval. For example, typing 2 in the Count By box causes Word for
Windows to insert a line number every second line.
