I have a document where the user has changed the Heading styles, and I want
it to return to the normal.dot styles, how do I do that?

I hope that question makes sense. Thank you for your help.
 
Try attaching (or reattaching) the document to your normal.dot.
Tools > Templates and Addins...
Check the box to update styles from templates.
Click on OK

Then go back to the dialog and uncheck that box.

Thanks!

Now I need to know how to get the styles to "stay" as I set them. Or maybe
it's the numbering. I set the styles to use numbering I., A., 1., etc.,
with Heading 1, 2 & 3, respectively. Yet when someone else pulls up the
document their headings are labeled 1., 1.1., 1.1.1., etc. How do I fix it
so that all users pull up the headings the way I had set them up?

Thanks again for your help.
 
Unfortunately, numbering formats are stored in the Registry of each user's
machine. If you want a specific numbering scheme linked to your styles, you
need to follow the instructions in
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html for linking
the numbering to the styles.
