It means you are inserting the # character and not the page number. It is a problem on various keyboard layouts. The best suggestion is choose your favourite unused F key, eg F7 and reprogram the pagenumber insert code to be that instead. Depending on your version, ie if its current CVS, go into Settings->Keyboard Shortcuts..., or if its an old CVS or 1.1.6 or lower then go into Edit->Preferences->General->Keyboard Shortcuts...
