Any text included in the number format, that is, typed in the "Number
format" box of the Customize Outline Numbered List dialog box, will have
the same formatting as the number, so I'm guessing the text you "place
beside the number" is something that you type in for each heading? If
so, you'll have to format it manually.

Note that you can use Ctrl+U to quickly apply underline formatting to
text. And if you want to apply more complex formatting in one step, you
can assign a character style.

Note also that if you are saying that you want all of level 1 (number
and text) to have a specific format, this can be easily accomplished if
you set up numbering so that each level is linked to a paragraph style.
