>My code, thus far, will save the position of the range where I wish to have my list begin and then after I have finished inserting each of the list elements, I create the main list. The problem is that one of the list items is also a list and when I attempt to create the final list, that mini-list within the list gets reformatted into the main list.

In order to do this, I think you need to use one of the Outline formats for the List.
