How number tables in Microsoft Word?

This is strange. Could you share an example document (remove any sensitive information first)?

I don't mind at all, though the document is rather long. It turns out that the problem still occurs in the excerpt I have attached. If it doesn't happen to you, then perhaps the problem lies in my .dot? For what it's worth, I find that if some of the titles on my tables (the closest ones?) are in bold, the Times fontsize 10 insertion is in bold, but not when I change all of them to non-bold. Thanks for all the attention you're devoting to this.

It looks correct when I open it. See the attached screenshot.

In your original document, see if "Automatically update document styles" is selected in the Templates and Add-Ins dialog box.

To display the dialog box: First display the Developer tab on the ribbon (File tab | Options | Customize Ribbon). Then click the Document Template button; you'll find the "Automatically update..." option on the Templates tab.

I don't seem to have a File tab; I have Office 2007...

Sorry. In Word 2007, use the Office ("pizza") button, and then click Word Options. Look for an option to display the Developer tab (I believe you'll find it in the Popular or General category).
