ListNumberingContinue

Under.zip (XTextChange) "ListNumberingContinue" - Undo any effect of "restart numbering".

Place your text cursor in any block of paragraphs with a style such as "List Number 2" and run the macro.
The macro will determine the extent of the block of paragraphs and allow numbering to continue from the previous block of paragraphs.

There is no need to select the entire block.
