wow...what the world has come down to...it's not that difficult, you know...

an online converter
http://www.novaroma.org/via_romana/numbers.html

a rule of thumb:
you will NEVER repeat any character more than 3 times in a row...for example...
1 = I
2 = II
3 = III
4 = not IIII, but IV
why IV? well 5 = V...and since you cannot repeat a character 4 times, you have to substract one from the next higher character/number...in this case, V (5). How do you substract? by putting the smaller number on the left side. To add, you do it on the right side...hence 6 = VI (5+1), 7 = VII (5+1+1), and so on
.

Should be Right in Word. Go to Numbers and Bullets and choose the Roman Numerals for numbering.

here are the roman numerals:

1 -- I
5 -- V
10 -- X
50 --L
100 -- C
500 -- D
1000 -- M

that is as high as the original romans went. some people will use the "M" with a "bar" over it for 1,000,000, but the romans never counted that high. i had 2 yrs of latin in h.s.
