Default Outline Numbered Styles Changing

No apologies would be necessary if you actually cross-posted. What you have
done, however, is multi-post (posted separately to more than one NG). If
you include both NGs in the header of a single post, then readers will not
see the duplicate post in the second NG they read.

I am going to cross-post this to another group, so apologies in advance if
you read both. I created a document template in Word 2007 (on XP Pro) that
employs an outline-style numbering, as follows:

1 Heading1
1.1 Heading2
1.1.1 Heading3

Body Text, based on no style, and no numbering
1.1 Body Text 2, based on Heading2, not bold
1.1.1 Body Text 3, based on Heading3, not bold

I wrote the document, no problem. Now, when I open the document to` edit
it,
my Body Text styles have all been modified to use the numbering format,
but
with the plain Body Text style starting at Level 2. I used the Template
Organizer to copy the styles from the original template, and the numbering
has been removed from all the styles. If I open the template, the styles
are
numbered or not, as I originally specified.

Can anybody explain this behavior?
