They are unique Series labels that identify the paragraphs that are the part of the same numbered flow. The "N" indicates that all the paragraph tags titled "StepNumber" are to be part of the same flow and the "L" indicates that all paragraph tags titled "StepLetter" are to be part of the same flow. It keeps the related tags together and keeps the numbering correct as a result. In FM's Online Help, serach for Series Label for the full blown detail. I don't see any series Label in your definitions, so FM can't properly number your steps.

The two different numbering sequences should have different auto-identifiers. Here is the setup that I use and I can get your desired results just fine: StepNumberBegin - N:<n=1 >.\t with NextParagraph set to StepNumberedContinued StepNumberContinued - N:<n+>.\t with NextParagraph set to StepNumberContinued StepLetterBegin - L:<n=a >.\t with NextParagraph set to StepLetterContinued StepLetterContinued - L: :<n+>.\t with NextParagraph set to StepLetterContinued HTH, TVB Tammy Van Boening Owner/Principal Spectrum Writing, LLC www.spectrumwritingllc.com [email protected] -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ed Lightle Sent: Monday, December 20, 2010 12:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Auto-Numbering Problem Hi, Frame Experts. I am using the following auto-numbering scheme and can get the "numbering" to pick up where it left off after using auto-numbers a), b), c),... Here is an example of what I get: 1. First step... 2. Second step... 3. Third step... a) First substep b) Second substep c) Third substep 5. (Should be 4th step) What can I do?
