Default Insert crossreference para number adds previous level

I have several types of notes that are separately numbered as different
levels in an outline. The levels do not reset on higher level, nor do the
numbers include any part of the higher level numbers. This essentially gives
me three lists that start at one and increment throughout my report. I also
cross reference these notes with REF fields to the paragraph number. Every
thing worked fine. Today, for no known reason, the cross references to the
notes numbered by the second and third level outline numbers started
including the higher level numbers in the cross references. The notes
themselves are still numbered correctly, but the cross reference to those
paragraph display the numbers for the other higher series as well. Why would
it do that and how can I make it stop? Any ideas?

Example:

Should be (and used to be):

....expectations for a well-functioning WP&C process. (2006-IA-11-O1)

but now it show this:

....expectations for a well-functioning WP&C process.
(2006-IA-11-S22006-IA-11-D32006-IA-11-O1)

Which REF field code is used for the cross-references? Press Alt+F9 to
find out. If the field code includes a switch that references higher
levels of numbering (such as \r or \w), this would certainly explain
what you are seeing. You can fix this by changing to the proper switch
(\n), and then updating all fields.

That was it, but on earlier versions they were "\n". Not sure why they all
changed, but they are fixed now. Thanks Stefan.

Glad I could help.

Note that the switch corresponds to the chosen option in the
Cross-reference dialog box: \n is for "Paragraph number (no context),"
\w is for "Paragraph number (full context)," and \r is for "Paragraph
number."
