How do I make sub-lists?

[Lara M T]

My main list is numbered: 1, 2, 3, etc. I want to add a sublist under step 2: a, b, c, etc. I have a feeling that I will have to create a new paragraph style, and I tried to do that, but I'm not sure how to do make letters instead of numbers in the paragraph designer window or how to start at "a" instead of "4".

Here is a post a wrote for a student a few years ago. The technique still works the same way for the current versions:

Come back and ask if you need further clarification.
