Once you’ve clicked this, you will see some new options:Ĭlick on OK here, which will take you back to the previous screen, OR click OK on the number format screen, then choose if you want Word to update this document ( Automatically update) and to apply this default to all new documents from now on ( New documents based on this template):Ĭlick OK and your comment boxes will have numbers! If you want to use a numbering scheme that’s not on this screen, click on Define New Number Format instead: Look at the bottom of the dialogue box and click the Format button, which will give you a dropdown menu:Ĭlick Numbering, which will allow you to select a numbering scheme:Ĭlick on the numbering scheme you want to use so that it’s highlighted with a line, and then click OK. This should be context-specific, but just check the style name is “ Comment Text”.Ĭlick the Modify button to access the Modify Style pane: We need to change the style of the comment balloons in order to add a number.Ĭlick inside a comment balloon and press Ctrl+Shift+S (all at the same time, in that order) to display the Apply Styles pane: How do I change the comment balloon style and numbering? Microsoft does have a habit of “simplifying” its Office interfaces, and the numbers do change with context (if you remove Comment 2, Comment 3 will be labelled Comment 2, etc.) but I have always found it useful to have numbers in my comment balloons.

Incidentally, this also signposts you to how to change the style of your comment balloon in general.
