What is a ListGallery

There are three types of list galleries in Word:
     ● wdBulletGallery - Single Level Bullets
     ● wdNumberGallery - Single Level Numbered
     ● wdOutlineNumberGallery - Multi-Level Numbering
ListGalleries are saved at both the application level and at the document level.
At the application level there can be only 7 different list templates for each of the 3 tabs.

At the document (or template) level there can be any number of different list templates.

Single Level Bullets - wdBulletGallery

This type of bullet only has Listlevel(1)

Single Level Numbered - wdNumberGallery

List Number - You can get the number that has been applied to any list-numbered paragraph using the ListString property

List Level - This means the level in a numbering outline. You can get the list level that has been applied to any list-numbered paragraph using the ListLevelNumber property

A paragraph that has no list numbering applied to it returns 1 (instead of 0).
One way of distinguishing unnumbered from numbered paragraphs that genuinely have a list level of 1 is to check how many listparagraphs are in the current range

This type of bullet only has Listlevel(1)

Multi-Level Numbering - wdOutlineNumberGallery

Outline Numbering
