Dim lfTemp As ListFormat
Dim intContinue As Integer
Set lfTemp = Selection.Range.ListFormat
intContinue = lfTemp.CanContinuePreviousList( _
ListTemplate:=lfTemp.ListTemplate)
If intContinue <> wdContinueDisabled Then
lfTemp.ApplyListTemplate _
ListTemplate:=lfTemp.ListTemplate, _
ContinuePreviousList:=True
End If
