I have a cell style, Exercise, in a style sheet that's just a variant of 
Text style. Its definition includes option CounterIncrements->"Exercise".

That style sheet is applied to a notebook where I'm going to use that 
style. Three questions:

(1) Is there some way of automatically having the number appear at the 
beginning of any such cell when I create it -- without using menu item 
Insert > Automatic Numbering.

(2) Is there some way of automatically having such a cell begin with the 
text "Exercise"?

(3) Is there some way of automatically having such a cell begin with 
"Exercise n. " where n is an actual automatic numbering counter value?
