I started to write a relatively big document. During the first cca. 80-100 pages
I was using only outline levels 1, 2 and 3. But then I needed to use level 4 as
well. Unfortunately I could not solve to number my chapter properly. It had the
number 1.1.1.1 instead of 2.x.x.x. 

In order to use the 4th level, in Tool => Outline Numbering I attached to level
4 the "Heading 4" style and set everything in level 4 as Heading 3 had on level
3 (except number of sublevels of course which was set to 4 instead of 3).

My 4th level chapter was after the 2.3.4 so I expected the 2.3.4.1 number to be
presented. Instead of this, 1.1.1.1 has appeared. I could not change this
behavior trying for several hours. 

After that I created a new document and made a 4-level heading hierarchy as a
test. The numbering was working fine. So OOo is capable to handle so deep
chapter hierarchy. This means that only my document became ill during the time. 

Therefore I started to reducing my 100-page document into a shorter version in
order to present the wrong behavior. It became worse and worse. The final
simplified version which I will attach soon, illustrates what I am talking
about. The chapter containing the text "This number is wrong" should be numbered
1.2.1.1 instead of 1.1.1.1. 

This document has several further problems as well. If I delete the letter D
from the chapter 1.2.1 by pressing the backspace button then the following
unexpected symptoms occur:
- "Main Title" looses his number "1" and his style "Heading 1" and goes back to
the basic style "Text body".
- Chapter containing "C" looses his style "Heading 3" visible on the toolbar and
becomes "Text body". It's presentation is changed too but the number "1.1.2"
remains.
- Chapter containing letter "D" earlier (deleted just now) looses it's style
"Heading 3" on the toolbar.The presentation and the number "1.2.1" remains
unchanged.
- The last chapter containing "Y" changes his style to "Text body with indent"
and letter Y will be indented by 0.5 cm.
- Undo does not un-do the whole things above but removes the number "1.2.1" 
too. 

So I think OOo made my document wrong during the time of editing. My question:
- Did I do something wrong?
- What should I avoid in order to prevent my document from such corruptions?
- How should I tell OOo to number by 4th level paragraph correctly instead of
"1.1.1.1"?
- Is my document repairable in some way (hexa-editing or so)? How?

I am using OOom9 (Build: 9358)
Build 2008-11-04
This is the Hungarian localization of OOo but such problems occured with earlier
2.* version of OOo too.
