At least I believe what I need is a proper template. What I want is a particular kind of paragraph numbering that I have in many docs but it's still lacking in another one. I apply it using Insert > Quick Parts > Field, and in the resulting dialog I choose ListNum, which presents a list of default possibilities. My desired paragraph numbering style is not among them, although it is present in several other documents that I have.

I may also need to know how to find the template (.dot file?) belonging to the documents that already have the ListNum format I want.

I'm not sure but I believe I have Word 2007.

Thanks for your help.
