MS Word 2010 circles with number inside
I am creating a training doc and I want to use an arrow to point to a field on screen shot and apply a number in a circle that corresponds to a table that describes the field. I can do the arrow but I don't know how to create the numbered circle. Once the arrow and circle are created, I will group them together for that field. Can anyone provide the how to for the numbered circle. Thanks

What you're asking isn't really clear. Is there an example you can point us to, or draw it with crayons on a napkin and scan it?

For doing such a task I use Inkscape which is freely available.
- Draw a circle (F5) (Hold Ctrl and drag)
- Double-click Fill at the bottom to set the color
to No paint
- Click on Stroke paint and choose Flat color
- Use 0, 0, 0 for black circle
- Click on Stroke style and choose a width of 0,5
mm. - Press 3 to center the view on the selected object.
- Use the Create and edit text objects tool (F8) to write the number
- Choose a decent font size so the number fits into the circle
- Use the Select and transform objects tool (F1) to select both the number and the the circle
- Press Shift+Ctrl+A for the Align and Distribute tool
Choose Relative to: Last selected. Press Center on vertical axis and Center on horizontal axis. - Looking good. Now export this to Word.

If I understand what you're trying to do, you should be able to right-click the circle and select either Add Text or Edit Text (whichever is available in Word 2010; I'm working with Word 2013 right now) to put the number in there:
(click to enlarge)
You can then adjust the text formatting just as if the circle were a regular text box.
