I once researched all this when I thought I had time to master it, and
found that Word has a truly remarkable process for storing bullets and
numbering styles. After working out all the logic (and subsequently
entirely forgetting it) I decided it was getting close to being
impossible for mere mortals (my users). I did however, get numbered
headings working consistently for the document I was developing that did
not have to be maintained by general users.
If you have the time, and get all the rules, and have a few days to
spare to play with it all, you should be able to fix it. I think it was
someone on this list who gave me a link to a document that explained all
the rules.
