Description
w:start sets the starting value for a numbered list level. It is defined in ECMA-376 Part 1 §17.9.22.
For w:numFmt values that are sequential (e.g. decimal, upperRoman), w:start controls the first number in the sequence. For bullet or none formats, this element has no visible effect. Typical usage is w:val="1" to start at 1.
