Do paragraphs 1717 and 1734 occur on consecutive pages? If so,
FrameMaker is behaving exactly as designed. The <$autorange>
option is desinged to indicate a page range in the index whenever
the same entry text appears in index markers that are on a
consecutive series of *pages*. Your index may be built around
paragraph numbers, but <$autorange> only works an a page-
wise basis.
Unless I'm mistaken, the only way you can get paragraph ranges
to be indicated in your index is to explicitly code them with
<$startrange> and <$endrange> building blocks in the
appropriate index markers.

Hi guys:
I am having trouble with the <$autorange> feature. I am using it in
conjunction with the <$paranum> as is usual for bibliographies.
I am inserting it in the right place, i.e. before <$paranum> in the correct
reference page text flow.
What I get in my index is
Cornell, Carohn 383, 17171734
which looks OK but is wrong. Paragraph numbers from 1718 to 1733 are not
authored by Cornell. The entry should read
Cornell, Carohn 383, 1717, 1734
in other words three discrete entries
here, autorange is creating a range where none exists.
I have consulted the Adobe Framemaker manual but confess I am licked.
Perhaps someone can shed some illumination on my mystery.
There are many other mysteries in the reference pages which I should be
able to understand but cannot, for example, why is there a page titled
"Index specifications" which looks like it should be directing the
construction of the index, but it is the last page with no heading which is
really doing the direction.
My entire project is ready to go to the publisher but here I am with no
autorange....
