Yup, I'm now well-educated on complex numbering formats. In fact, I used to know all this from pre version 5 days (honest), but I'd archived the knowledge since the advent of simpler schemes based on $chapnum and named threads. I rarely use multi-level numbering. Thanks to your and Roger Shuttleworth's help, I am now well re-educated and have numbering working exactly as I want. Roger was particularly patient with me as I floundered my way through sorting the problems out, even to the point of telling him firmly that it did not work when it did. This subject needs better explanation than it gets in the user guide. One thing that is specifically counter-intuitive and needs to be spelled out very firmly is that fact that separate numbering fields within a thread do not necessarily map to separate level counters in a multi-level numbering scheme, which is what one might intuitively expect. My thanks to all. -- Steve _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
