FND_FLEX_VALUE Hierarchy

Question

Hi,
I have following query
SELECT ffvc.parent_flex_value pcat_parent_code,
ffvc.flex_value pcat_child_code,
--(LEVEL - 1) pcat_level,
ffvc.description pcat_desc
FROM apps.fnd_flex_value_children_v ffvc,
apps.fnd_flex_values ffv
WHERE ffvc.flex_value_set_id = (SELECT   flex_value_set_id
FROM   apps.fnd_flex_value_sets
WHERE   flex_value_set_name = 'MCK_GLB_PCAT_VS')
AND   ffv.flex_value_set_id = ffvc.flex_value_set_id
AND   ffv.flex_value = ffvc.flex_value
I want to find parent-child level, so I modified the above query as follows -
SELECT ffvc.parent_flex_value pcat_parent_code,
ffvc.flex_value pcat_child_code,
*(LEVEL - 1) pcat_level,*
ffvc.description pcat_desc
FROM apps.fnd_flex_value_children_v ffvc,
apps.fnd_flex_values ffv
WHERE ffvc.flex_value_set_id = (SELECT   flex_value_set_id
FROM   apps.fnd_flex_value_sets
WHERE   flex_value_set_name = 'MCK_GLB_PCAT_VS')
AND   ffv.flex_value_set_id = ffvc.flex_value_set_id
AND   ffv.flex_value = ffvc.flex_value
START WITH   ffvc.parent_flex_value IN ('001',
*'010',*
*'019',*
*'020',*
*'030',*
*'035',*
*'101',*
*'105',*
*'110',*
*'120',*
*'130',*
*'201',*
*'250',*
*'300',*
*'401',*
*'405',*
*'605',*
*'A97',*
*'A98',*
*'A99')*
CONNECT BY PRIOR ffvc.parent_flex_value = ffvc.flex_value;
The top most qurey returns correct records. But when I add START WITH and CONNECT BY the query returns repeated records with different level_id.
I am not able to understnd how same parent-child can have different levels.
Kindly let me know if there is some thing wrong in my query (START WITH and CONNECT BY).
Thanks,
