Thank you Fred, Ann, and Jeremy for your replies. All suggested that I review
the numbering properties at the book and document levels for consistency.
Fred, however, wins the scalp on this bug with the following suggestion:
"And are you remembering to execute the Update Book command
to refresh all the numbering after you make any changes in the
book-level numbering properties? The numbering does not update
on the fly when you change the setup; you must explicitly tell
FrameMaker to perform the update."
D'Oh!
Thanks!

All: I'm having a difficult time finessing this one, and I think I need
someone to help me come at it from a different angle. I have chapterwise
paragraph numbers that I want to reset on every chapter break, and I
have a set of requirement numbers that I want to sustain across chapter
boundaries. Hence:
...
Section 5.10.6
blah blah
Requirement 47: Thou shalt Foo
Chapter 6
Section 6-1
blah-blah
Requirement 48: Thou shalt Bar
The problem is that I still end up with:
Section 6-1
blah-blah
Requirement 1: Thou shalt Bar
The current Heading p-tags are: C:<$chapnum>.<n+>.< =0>< =0>< =0>< =0><
=0>\t (for Heading1, outputting "N.1 [Section Title]" and resetting
all subheadings in the C: series). At the chapter break, the Chapter
title P-tag resets the entire series with C:<$chapnum>.< =0>< =0>< =0><
=0>< =0>< =0>.
The current Requirement p-tag is: R:Requirement <n+>
I have set the paragraph numbering properties to continue paragraph
numbering from chapter to chapter, under the theory that the C: series
will be reset by the chapter title regardless. Nonetheless, the R:
series doggedly resets at the chapter breaks. As things stand, I'm
having to cook up a fudge p-tag setting at the chapter breaks, which is
obviously unacceptable.
What am I doing wrong?
