Greetings. For many years I used an excellent (for me) outliner embedded in the DOS word-processor for scholars, Nota Bene. I wrote everything within that outliner and became thoroughly accustomed to its typical, maybe old-fashioned, classroom subdivisions: I, A., 1., a., (1), (a), etc. which were part of the text itself.
Then I bought its Windows version, whose outliner lacks the structure I prefer. Although Iím an old guy (former professor, newspaper editor), I still want to finish various writing projects.
Can anyone recommend any Windows (XP) outliner programs with letter/numeral headings as indicated above (instead of triangles, arrows or other symbols)? Or, at least with numerical headings (1.1.1. etc)?
I would strongly prefer an outliner that is a modest word-processor with formatting and one in which I can complete a 400-age book.
It is not possible for me to access this forum often. If you post an answer, I would appreciate an email copy of it or, perhaps, a heads-up email:

I would be most grateful for your advice.
God bless you all.
Bill Steo
