The "bible" for numbering is

and earlier) or

appropriate. Set up your outline-numbered/multilevel list linked to styles
as Shauna describes, and it is practically unbreakable.

My company has a document template that has a custom style set. For
some reason, the numbering is disappearing from the styles. If i open a
document with the correct styles and save as a quick style set, the
numbering disappears from it. Everything else about the styles stays
the same but the numbering is gone. In some cases, it's only happened
with one of the three numbering levels.
The only workaround that i have found is to copy a heading from another
document, select it and then 'update style to match selection.' Using
the format painter between the documents does not solve the problem.
Our documents get a lot of cutting and pasting from other documents with
different styles so that's likely the root of the problem but it seems
to manifest itself into 'clean' documents that have been started from
scratch as well.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
