You'll have to copy both the list style and the paragraph styles to the
template.

However, to transfer numbering settings between documents, the following
approach will be safer: From a document that has the correct number formatting,
use Save As to create a template. Then create a document based on your new
template and use the Insert File dialog box to bring in an existing document
that you want to reformat.

And to access the Insert File dialog box in Word 2007, click Insert tab | Object

I created linked heading styles and when I try to use the Linked style in a new document, the association is totally gone to the heading styles. It doesn't seem to hold the "Links" to linked heading styles I associated with them. (Sorry tried to take a screenshot but it doesn't want to paste.)

I don't know if it's a bug or "by design." I guess that depends on who you ask!
