If you select the numbering scheme that is linked to the headings, then you
will be using the heading styles, and they will be numbered. You apply the
numbering by applying the appropriate heading style.

This works OK for me, setting up a style 1, 1.1, 1.1.1 etc linked to
heading
styles. I agree that it is not as intuitive and cannot see why this is
not
available from Styles. However, there is another problem I have struck,
which seems really odd:

Setting up your heading styles this was turns them into a Numbered List,
not
a Heading. So they no longer appear in to Go To or the Insert
Cross-Reference as Headings. They do appear under the Numbered List type,
along with any other numbered lists, which is really and truly unhelpful.

Thanks to their outline levels they do appear in the Table of Contents.
