Default Too many \ls indices for Word 2003 to handle?

Hello,

Is there a known issue with Word 2003 getting lost after a certain number of
listoverrides? Our software produces RTF files with typically 100+ sections,
each of which has its own list formatting (its own \listids with accompanying
\listoverrides in the RTF). So section 1 would reference \ls1 for its list
formatting, section 2 \ls2 and so on. After about the 57th section, Word
2003 stops displaying paragraph numbers for the list levels. If I go into
the RTF and manually change, say, section #87 to use \ls1 rather than \ls87,
that particular section's paragraph numbers display just fine (even if I
change \ls87 to \ls1 for just one paragraph, that one paragraph's numbers
show fine). This leads me to think Word 2003 is getting lost after a certain
\ls index. The same document displays just fine in Word 2007. I've
thoroughly examined the RTF to make sure it's formed correctly, including the
list templates. There is nothing different about the list structures
referenced after \ls57 that would cause the numbers to not appear. I have
Service Pack 3 for Office 2003 installed. Have there been any fixes since
then that address numbering issues? Would love to have our customers apply a
fix rather than have to hack the RTF control to compare list structures and
keep only content-unique ones.
Any help would be appreciated more than you can realize!

-D
