BOM ITEM #ing

I am using the SW BOM as opposed to the Excel-Based BOM. I like some of the features of it.

My problem is that when I select INDENTED ASSEMBLIES and SHOW NUMBERING under BOM OPTIONS it shows the item number for the indented items in "outline" format. Is there a way for it to treat them in the sequence of item numbers? i.e. instead of:

1
2
2.1
2.2
3

to be:

1
2
3
4
5

I would like to stay with the SW BOM if I can instead of Excel-Based.

Thank you for any help here
