You can modify the formatting of the built-in heading styles to anything you want.
The key to having them used for numbering is to link them as described by Ms. Kelly.
The built-in headings have many advantages, such that I can't imagine not using them.
However, you can use other headings or styles in a TOC. This is described in Shauna's article on creating a Table of Contents. If you want a different approach to this you can look at:

And that can be handled by adding space-before formatting to the style you are using for that heading.[not header]

I know that I have tossed a lot of reading at you. If you truly have responsibility for maintaining a large document, doing the reading will save you time, probably as much time as you spend doing the reading within the first week.
