Others in the List : My apologies for stating something you may 
already know.

AG : 
I would suggest a paragraph style for the sections that contain the 
numbering.  What you may want to do is (in sequence)
1.  Open a NEW document

1a. Press F11 to call up the Styles Menu.

1b. Choose "List Styles"

2.  Define a List Style : at this point, do not set the 
    tabs or the indents

3.  Define a Paragraph Style, including in this style 
    the font, size etc.  One of the other parameters 
    you would also need to define is the Bullet and Numbering 
    style - choose the style you created in step (2) above.

4.  Apply the Paragraph Style you created (in point 3 above) 
    to a block of text - if everything looks good, skip to 
    point (6)

5.  If things do not look good (i.e., the indents are different),
    then, RE-EDIT the Bullet Style created in step (2) above, 
    and set the indents till things are looking good.

6.  Remove all text in the file (remember, it is a "new" file, 
    and, therefore, should not contain any text of any significance)

7.  Save this file as a TEMPLATE.

8.  The next time you want to use this type of bullets/numbering, 
    just open this template: you would not need to go through the
    entire rigmarole again.

If you use other 'fixed' styles, for this type of a document, you may 
want to save these styles also in the template...

My apologies if you already knew this.  I request the list to please 
add to the steps above, should they be incorrect/inadequate.
