> Hi; This bug is not resolved. I am using version 6.4.4.2 in Linux and the
> stable version in Windows (6.3.6.2). The following causes the numbering
> problem:
> * Create numbered headings using chapter numbering
> * save as docx and exit
> * reopen the file
> * insert a new heading
> Bug: The new heading always starts with a number of 1.
> I fix this by clicking on the heading that I have entered; then right click
> on "Bullets and Numbering" and choose option "Restart Numbering".
> I then save this as a docx and reopen it in Microsoft Word (365). I insert a
> new heading and then, lo and behold, this new heading starts at 1 too. To
> fix this in Word I click Home then select the "Multilevel List" option and
> then I select a Heading list (or I create my own multi-level list).
> Basically, the libreoffice document that was sent to Word had the wrong type
> of list (i.e. not a "Heading" list)
> The above might not seem like a major problem because it is a workaround.
> However, the bug is CRITICAL (I cannot change it to this as I do not have
> authority) because it stops all collaboration on documents with numbered
> headings between Libreoffice and Word, as I cannot ask my clients to fix
> numbering problems caused by Libreoffice when they are working in Word.
> Given that most businesses rely on numbered headings to docx formatted
> documents this makes it generally impossible to use Libreoffice in a shared
> business environment. Also, often I receive client documents in docx format
> I am expected to review them and make changes in docx format - not ODT
> format. 
> Hope this helps as a clarification.
> Just to say - this cannot be insuperable as Softmake Office has resolved the
> docx heading numbering.

Hi there, good to know u facing the same problem as me. most likely this issue
got fixed by the fix of bug 76817, visit bug 76817 yourself to see that it will
be available from version 7.0. u hv checked in 6.4.4.2 and 6.3.6.2 which havent
got the fix and so issue obviously is there. wait till 7.0 which will come
after the next release of 6.4.5 i think. u can download unstable 7.0 or 7.1 to
check urself from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/
