It's a multi-step process (at least, when you do it right! ;-) ).

First, create a list style (NOT a paragraph style). In the Styles and Formatting window (press F11 to view it if it isn't already onscreen), it's the fifth style type from the left (the icons are at the top of the window). To create the new list style:

   * right-click and select New...
   * click on the Outline tab
   * select the option that's closest to what you want
   * click on the Options tab
   * Select a level (from 1 to 10), and fine-tune it as desired

Second, create a paragraph style. Click on the Numbering tab and select the list style you just created.

There is another option if you want to get slightly more complicated, but more thorough - before doing any of the above, create a character style which will be used for the letters and numbers of the outline. When you create the list style, in the Options tab, select the character style created.

It all sounds complicated (creating three different styles), but it's great in the longterm... :)
