Microsoft doesn't sell older versions of Word (assuming that's what you are
asking).

However, note that multilevel (outline) numbering isn't that different in
Word 2007, although the user interface (obviously) has changed a lot.

To create an outline of headings you can choose one of the predefined
heading formats listed under Home tab | Multilevel List (corresponds to
choosing a predefined heading format in Format | Bullets and Numbering of
previous versions).

To modify an existing multilevel list, first place the insertion point in
the first level 1 item (which means the first Heading 1 paragraph of the
document if you are dealing with heading numbering). Then click Home tab |
Multilevel List | Define New Multilevel List; you are presented with a
dialog box where you can define all aspects of numbering for all numbering
levels.

Each of these entries had a number of subordinate entries. I then went to
the multi-level list on the home tab. There I was able to assign letters A to
E for the level ones. But I had to do it one at a time. I was unable to
assign a numerical designations for my level two's as I had intended.

Thanks for the help

Somehow I think you're not getting it. You set up the outline numbering
linked to specific styles; then you apply those styles to the paragraphs you
want to have the numbering.
