SYMPTOMS
When you create a new style based on an existing style and then define the existing (based-on) style to include numbering, the new style will also be defined to include numbering. CAUSEThis behavior is different from versions of Word earlier than Microsoft Word 97 for Windows. Any custom style inherits numbering that is applied to the style it is based on. WORKAROUND
Do not apply numbering to the existing style. Instead, apply numbering to the new style. MORE INFORMATION
In versions of Word earlier than Microsoft Word 97 for Windows, if you create a new style, for example MyStyle, and base it on the built-in Heading 1 style, it takes on the Heading 1 style attributes. If you then define Heading 1 to have heading numbering, Heading 1 will have the heading-numbering attribute applied to it, but MyStyle will not.
