Word styles and navigation
The major problem is that the Normal style has acquired multilevel numbering. This is a problem because Normal is the parent (based-on) style for many other styles, and these other styles will then inherit the numbering, creating a ripple effect of undesired numbering.
Click in a paragraph in the Normal style and turn off numbering by clicking the number icon on the Home tab. In the Styles pane (Ctrl+Shift+Alt+S), click the arrow next to Normal and choose Update Normal to Match Selection. This will permanently remove the numbering.
For styles that should include multilevel numbering, set it up by following the instructions in Shauna Kelly's article at https://shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/numbering20072010.html.
Stefan_Blom Here is a sample (I removed anything sensible!)
