Default Numbered style bug in Word 2007?

SEQ fields cannot be attached to a style; what you can do is save the field
in an AutoText entry.

However, it is hard to tell which is the best approach. Since outline
numbering now works, I guess there is no reason not to use it. It is
definitely likely to be easier for users. :-)

I looked at the link you provided (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/
word/HP051861901033.aspx?pid=CH061047291033) and it says:

"The easiest way to insert SEQ fields to number tables, figures, and
other items in a document is to use the Caption command (Insert menu,
Reference submenu). "

In other words, I need to create an extra button for this? I wouldn't
get this style to appear along with my other styles?

In this case I find it better to include my tenth style with the
others and add an extra button for "restart numbering", which is what
I was trying to avoid in the first place.

Is this the best I can do?
