Default Wits end with Word autonumbering

Hi all,

the subject pretty much says it all. I have a 115 page document that employs
dozens of different numbering layouts and formats, none really work together
and they are too easily ruined. I need help from anyone that can tell me a
few simple things with word numbering:

1. How do I get an outlined numbering that starts at the second level of
numbering? i.e. when I'm writing why can I not specifically choose an outline
numbering that lets me start with 1.1? and then when I press enter it would
go to 1.2, if I pressed enter + tab it would go to 1.2.1

For instance I may have: "Section 1: Introduction" as a heading 3 for the
table of contents. So, I would want everything in there listed in an outline
system with the first number starting at 1.1 and down from there. I'd also
like it so that when I move on to section 2, I can simply re-adjust the
numbering to start at 2.1 without affecting section 1.

I hope this makes sense, if anyone can help me I would truly appreciate it.
This has been a headache for me for well over a month now. Thanks all!
