Creating custom styles

Howdy OpenOffice community,
I'm new, and hoping OpenOffice will help me wean off of MS tools. I have a number of templates I use frequently with Word, and I was copying them into Writer and saving them as templates. So far all is well. In one of the templates, I have some custom bullets. To wit,
App:
Prin:
The first, oddly enough, is named Applications, and it follows another custom style named Division. The template starts with some non-styled lines, then a Division. The style following Division is Application, and after Application is Principle.
My problem is that I can't see how to do this in Writer. If this is possible, please write and tell me how.
Many thanks,
AustinJoe
