It makes a lot of sense if you suppose that the original purpose of multiple flows in a document was to allow FM to emulate a page-layout program in addition to its main use for book production. Articles laid out in newsletter or magazine style constitute multiple, unrelated flows, and it would make perfect sense to have unrelated numbering streams for them. When we use multiple flows in a book situation, it's more likely to be as a work-around for some unusual situation, and it's not surprising that the numbering restart doesn't suit; it wasn't designed for that use. Don't let Frame's numbering get you "steamed"; remember, you could be working in MS Word! <extended derisive laughter> :-) -- Stuart Rogers Technical Communicator Phoenix Geophysics Limited Toronto, ON, Canada +1 (416) 491-7340 x 325 srogers phoenix-geophysics com "It is not enough that I succeed.
