Template Numbering Doesn't Work on Another Computer

I followed the Shauna Kelly rules for setting up numbering for my
template. (I picked one Outline List Template and set all subsequent
headings from there and linked them to the appropriate heading styles.
And I named my list template.)

The template has user forms for soliciting info from the User,
including the number that Heading 1 should start at. The template
macros take this and start Heading 1 at that number (e.g.," 4," then
Heading 2 should be "4.1" and Heading 3 should be "4.1.1"). This
template works for me, but when my coworker tried creating a document
from the template, his Heading 1 set correctly (in this case as a
"9") but then his Heading 2 was "3.1" and his Heading 3 was "3.1.1."

He emailed the document back to me and and I found that his Headings 2
and 3 were no longer linked to the same List Template as Heading 1. Is
this due to an error I have made in my template numbering set up or
should I look elsewhere for the cause?

Thanks, Stefan. I will try that.
