Please find example attached. 
On right sight and on top you see paths I want to fill INSIDE with color.
On left side you see the way Illustrator CS 2 it fills incorrect. 
How can I achieve the filling inside, in correctly way ? The Path is completely closed.

Now I found the Solution: 
I need to select only 2 path meeting in one point (with a rectangle selection araund it) and join both paths. And so on. THEN it works ! Thanks to all which joined my question with answers.

Good to hear you got it solved. Illustrator was probably improved since CS2 and made it easier to join more points in one go.

May be it's a problem because of older version of illustrator (CS 2) ? 
But how can I resolve it ? I need my path filled inside, not filled partly outside.

Does not look like closed.

Check in the Layers panel if you have multiple paths on top of each other.

I have only one layer and the path is closed.
