I've got a document set up with a multi-level list (actually saved as a List Style named "Headings"). I have heading styles linked with each (Home-multilevel list dropdown-select custom list "headings"-right click -modify-numbering-more-liink level to style). It worked great yesterday. I saved it, and reopened this morning. level numbers were gone from top level and some others. So I went into the same dialog, and noticed NONE of the levels had styles linked to them. So I did it again, starting at heading 1 through heading 5, and linked them to levels 1-5 in my document. Again, worked great. After several hours with it working great, I saved and closed Word. Got home, opened it again, and AGAIN no styles linked to the levels in my list. But if I relink them, the doc is fine. And obviously I'm clicking OK and OK on the dialogs right, since it works fine till I save it.



How do I make these STAY linked?
