I have define styles for headings (H1 and H2). They are supposed to number
like:

1. Heading1
1.1. Heading2
1.2. Heading2
2. Heading1
2.1. Heading2
etc.

But they do it like:
1. Heading1
1.1. Heading2
1.2. Heading2
2. Heading1
1.3. Heading2
1.4. Heading2

How do I get the H2 follow H1?

You have to set level 2 to restart after level 1, in the options for the
outline-numbered list. Instructions for Word 97-2003 can be found at
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html.

If you are using Word 2007, do this: Place the insertion point in a Heading
1 paragraph. On the Home tab, click Multilevel List, and then click Define
New Multilevel List. You'll see a dialog box similar to the Customize
Outline Numbered List dialog box of Word 97-2003. You may have to click the
More button to see all options.

Sometimes it is easier to delete the contents of the "Number format" box and
start over, carefully adding the numbering of previous levels as well as
that of the current level, and typing in the separators.
