Word 2007 Outline Level changes keep on reverting

Hi, I'm trying to tidy up the formatting of a 120 page report in Word
2007, which was written by someone else and originally based on a Word
2003 Template / doc. The main problem is with the Outline Level - text
(some Normal text, some text formatted as Captions, but not others,
some Bold Text, some Italics, etc.) which should be Body Text appears
as Level 1. When I change it to Body Text in Paragraph formatting,
close the document and re-open it, it usually retains the Body Text
formatting I want, but when I open it a second time, it's reverted
back to the old formatting. This means the Table of Contents and the
Document Map are a mess.
I've tried copying and pasting the text into a new document, as
Unformatted Text, and re-formatted everything as it should be, but
I've just re-opened the doc and some of the text has reverted back to
Outline Level 1. It's driving me insane. Any suggestions?
Thanks, David

Thanks, that at least explains why it's happening and means I can fix
the TOC which is the main thing.
