Default Erratic numbering in Word 2010 document

All



I inherited a document that I need to fix as the numbering in places is erratic.
It will look something like this (also sample document attached) :

1. Paragraph
2. Paragraph (and then suddenly jumps to 19.1)
19.1 Paragraph
19.2 Paragraph

The first few paragraphs have a level 1 style attached to it which has outline numbering level 1, e.g. 1. France

whilst the next few paragraphs have a level 2 style attached to it which has outline numbering level 2
e.g. 19.1 Paris


How can I get it to be 2.1 and 2.2 instead of 19.1 and 19.2?

Any assistance greatly appreciated!

Kenneth
