To expand on what Dean has said, if you are creating an outline using the
built-in heading styles, the "Style for following paragraph" of all heading
styles is set to Normal. This is the style you will get when you press Enter
at the end of a heading in any view but Outline view; in that view you will
get another paragraph in the same style. If you don't intend to have any
body text in your outline, then change the following style to the same style
or (if preferred) the lower-level style.
If you are building an outline based on heading styles, please also note
that all heading styles are formatted as "Keep with next," which will cause
pagination problems as each paragraph chases the following ones. You need to
remove this property from the lower-level styles, say Heading 3 and beyond
(depending on the number of items you have at any given level).

Go to the Modify Style dialog for this particular style and change the
"Style
for following paragraph" to the same style.
You don't mention the version of Word you are using, so finding this
dialog
will differ depending on the version.
Hope this helps

I have created a new multilevel list in Microsoft Word in order to

connect my formatted styles with specific bullet point levels, something
which I can't seem to accomplish using bullet points. But unlike bullet

to
manually turn on the list again. This is incredibly frustrating and,
quite
frankly, non-sensical, so I'd appreciate any help.
