In version 7.1 you do need to set the list numbering specified in the sub/documents as copies of the master document. Start with the numbering in them master document and copy this tempalte as a starter for each sub/document.  There will be added features in 7.5 to accomodate this.

Ah, that explains a lot. Actually the whole process of numbering is actually not very consistent and cumbersome as it behaves differently depending on the scope it is used in. This needs improvement. I assume.

There  is a new feature to be released that allows a Normal.RTF (Normal.Dot equiv.)  to used in the background and updates of styles/numbering made to templates from this.
