For information about how to set up the numbering, see: How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in your Microsoft Word document http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering.html
If you create a template to hold your numbering scheme, you can use that template as the basis for new documents (using File > New) and the new documents will then inherit your numbering scheme. To do that, see:
Creating a Template - The Basics (Part I) http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/CreateATemplatePart1.htm
