Is the "Automatically update document styles" option checked in the
Templates and Add-Ins dialog box? If so, clear it and reapply heading
numbering.

To display the dialog box: First make sure that the Developer tab is
showing. In Office button | Word Options, Popular category, check the "Show
Developer tab in the Ribbon" option, and click OK. Then, on the Developer
tab, click the Document Template button.

Hi -

I used Shauna's very helpful document,
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html, to set up
my
headings in my MS Word 2007 document. Everything looked great until I
closed
the document. When I re-open it, all the heading numbers are gone!

I don't know if this makes a difference or not, but I'm working in Word
2007, but the document is being saved as a .DOC and in compatibility mode.
