This example creates a new list template and then links heading styles 1 through 9 to levels 1 through 9. The new list template is then applied to the document. Any paragraphs formatted as heading styles will assume the numbering from the list template.

Dim ltTemp As ListTemplate
Dim intLoop As Integer

Set ltTemp = _
    ActiveDocument.ListTemplates.Add(OutlineNumbered:=True)

For intLoop = 1 To 9
    With ltTemp.ListLevels(intLoop)
        .NumberStyle = wdListNumberStyleArabic
        .NumberPosition = InchesToPoints(0.25 * (intLoop - 1))
        .TextPosition = InchesToPoints(0.25 * intLoop)
        .NumberFormat = "%" & intLoop & "."
    End With
    With ActiveDocument.Styles("Heading " & intLoop)
       .LinkToListTemplate ListTemplate:=ltTemp
    End With
Next intLoop

ActiveDocument.Content.ListFormat.ApplyListTemplate _
    ListTemplate:=ltTemp
