Copying List Number Styles between templates dumps left indents

[Laura]

Hi,

I have a macro that copies specific styles from a template to the current document.

It works beautifully unless I'm copying list numbers or list bullets -- in which case it completely ignores the left indents (number position, tab position, and text wrapping position) of the style it's copying into the the document. The problem seems to have something to do with the bullets and numbering gallery (shocking...).

I noticed that if I use the Style Gallery to bring in styles, it brings the list styles across properly, but this doesn't allow me to limit which styles are copied.

Does anyone have any idea how I can copy the list styles across WITH their left indents short of ascertaining the formatting and then reformatting the styles after copying them into the document?

Thanks so much.

This involves copying the list template for which no utility exists.
My preferred solution is to have a macro that sets your list templates
for the template, then create documents based on that template to
incorporate the lists.
