Default List Styles and TOC - Word 2007

You'll have to copy both the list style and the paragraph styles to the
template.

However, to transfer numbering settings between documents, the following
approach will be safer: From a document that has the correct number formatting,
use Save As to create a template. Then create a document based on your new
template and use the Insert File dialog box to bring in an existing document
that you want to reformat.

Hello, Word Gurus! I have a question regarding List Styles in Word. I
created my numbering and linked Heading styles 1 - 9 with all nine levels in
my list. I named and saved the new style and started list in new document.
Although I linked my heading styles to each level, Word does not recognize
when I try to use in my Table of Contents. Does anyone know how Word 2007
see's these linked styles and how do I get it to recognize for my TOC?


It seems that when saving the list style to the template, it looses its
memory and forgets it has linked heading styles. Will the linked styles not
save with List Styles?

Thanks So MUCH!

Thanks, Stefan - but since I was using Word's default Heading styles 1-9, they should be already in the normal.dot, shouldn't they? In theory, this should work, right? Is it a bug in Word perhaps, or maybe by design?
