I need to create a numbering system that includes both Alpha and Numeric 
characters.  Any ideas?

If you are referring to static text, it's the same as in previous versions:
just type it into the "Number format" box (of the appropriate dialog box).

If you have created single-level numbering without attaching it to a 
paragraph style, place the insertion point in the numbered list. On the Home 
tab, click the arrow to the right of the Numbering button, and then click 
Define New Number Format.

If you have created single-level numbering and attached it to a paragraph 
style, click Format, Numbering in the Modify Style dialog box, and then 
click Define New Number Format.

If you are referring to multilevel (outline) numbering, place the insertion 
point in the first level 1 paragraph of your list (for heading numbering, 
this means the first Heading 1 paragraph of the document). On the Home tab, 
click Multilevel List | Define New Multilevel List. Select the level that 
you want to modify.
