Copying List Style To New Word Document - numbering

[bertietheblue]

Hi

I've received 2 legal agreements from a client: Doc A with outline numbering; Doc B without any formatting. The client wants me to apply the outline numbering in Doc A to Doc B, and to apply the outline numbering to future agreements he sends. I'm not sure how to do this in Word 2010.

I thought I'd save Doc A as a Word Template - I understood to do this I needed to open Word and select File > New > Available Templates: New from Existing, and locate Doc A, having tried and failed by opening Doc A directly and selecting File > Save As > Save as Type: Word Template.

In any event, when I then open Doc B, I've no idea how to activate the Doc A template so I can apply it to Doc B.

Can someone point me in the right direction, please?

Thanks
Bertie
