word multilevel outline-- lock numbers??

I have created a 200+ page document w/ outlines and multiple numbered lists and multiple multi-level lists.

Is there a way to "lock" or "freeze" the list numbers?

I want to allow others to edit the content but not change/delete/add to the numbers on the various lists.

Can you help?

Answer

Depending on how the numbering was done, I recall a function to convert automatic numbers to manual. Would that help?

Note that this is a one-way conversion. Getting them back to automatic would require more.
