Lower-level outline numbering not displaying correct numbers

M

Mark Glasser

I'm building a template with multiple heading styles and
want those headings numbered in outline format. I've
defined the styles, created the linkages, identified
previous numbering level, etc., but I am getting what
looks like transposed numbers in my lower-level styles.

What I want is:

1. Heading 1 style
1.1 Sub heading 1 style
2. Heading 1 style
2.1 Sub Heading 1 style
2.2 Sub Heading 1 style
2.2.1 Sub heading 2 style
2.2.2 Sub heading 2 style
etc...

What I am getting is:

1. Heading 1 style
1.1 Sub heading 1 style
2. Heading 1 style
2.1 Sub Heading 1 style
1.2.1 Sub heading 2 style
1.2.2 Sub heading 2 style

In the final two lines of the example above, the
numbering seems to be attached to the previous Heading 1
style numbering and not the numbering of the "section" I
am in.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
