Updating Numbering for Multiple Documents

I've been creating a TOC using the following information:
http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=148

Within these multiple documents, I have section 5.2.1.1 in one document,
5.2.1.2 in another document and so on. I also have styles assigned to each
level of the numbering down to level 5. I am finding that my numbering
styles are being reset somehow and I'm not sure why. I'm also seeing the
section numbers being displayed as 5 . 2 . 1 . 2

Can someone assist?

Thanks in advance.

The only thing I've really found is that the upper level style (analogous to
Heading 1) was not based on "NO STYLE". I've "updated" the numberingfor the
current selection to match the numbering I want and it seems to keep
reverting back. I have no idea what to try now. BTW, I'm working on a
separate version of these docs and not the "originals" until I figure this
out.

Thanks in advance,

I have found that turing off "Automatically Update Document Styles" in
Templates and Add-ins, turns this off. I still don't quite understand it
all, but I'm sure it will come in time.
