The reason I asked is that if it is only this one template, there is a good chance that the template is "corrupt," i.e., broken. See Document Corruption

Numbering should really be handled through styles rather than through quickparts. Even though your parts are not simply text, you probably want to save them as AutoText. See How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Word 2007 and Word 2010

You could create a style set that includes your numbering styles. Otherwise, it is possible to have a global template (other than normal.dotm) that holds styles that are imported using a macro in the global template.
