You are correct. IV =4 . The only number with just straight lines is 3.
III =3 in Roman numerals

Hi Dawn Middaugh, where are you trying to include Roman numerals - Word, PowerPoint, Excel, or somewhere else? If you are working in Office, just use the letters I,V,X, and C,D,M to make the numerals. So, 1-10 would be I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X. C is for 100, so CXI is 111. DXI is 511. MCXI is 1,111. If you need anymore help let me know.

Book indexing systems likely require such capabilities. That subject is in the realm of Nancy C. Mulvany (writer of 2005's Indexing Books); but good luck on getting a reply from such lofty heights.

I doubt you want to use this online alphabetizer which can handle Roman numerals: http://alphabetizer.flap.tv/

Maybe I have misunderstood the question and you are wondering about something else besides sorting. But here is a link regarding some sql server sorting: http://sql.software.informer.com/download-sql-server-sort-roman-numerals/

In Roman numerals, 5 is V.

You write
17= XV11
21= XX1

I think you are talking about bullet points, right? You have to start a list and right click on the number. Then go to Bullets and Numbering and select the type of Roman numerals you like (lower or upper case).
