Hi Robert, There is an autonumbered paragraph between the two that is resetting one of the numbers. The easiest way to try to fix this is to add a series label to the H1, H2, and H3 autonumbers. A series label is a single letter followed by a colon; for example,
- H1 - H:<$chapnum>.<n+> - H2 - H:<$chapnum>.<n>.<n+> - H3 - H:<$chapnum>.<n>.<n>.<n+> All of the autonumbers in the same series "work together" and are not affected by any other autonumber paragraphs. If this doesn't solve the problem, send me a document offlist and I will tell you where the problem is. Thanks. Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing Inc 585-659-8267 www.frameexpert.com Hello Everyone, I?m new to the list - but I am looking forward to helping and contributing. I?ve only been using Frame for a couple of years now, but I am getting more and more experienced every day . . . But not experienced enough to the bottom of this *Strangeness with Autonumbers*. So I have four heading levels (Chapter.H1.H2.H3), and I need to have numbered headings. I have the following autonumber formats. - H1 - <$chapnum>.<n+> - H2 - <$chapnum>.<n>.<n+> - H3 - <$chapnum>.<n>.<n>.<n+> Everything should be fine, right? Well, it works in most of my chapters, but in others it fails. The typical failure looks like: - 3.2 - 3.2.1 - 3.0.1 (where it should be 3.3.1) - Then I get 3.0.1 many times, suddenly a 3.2.1 and on and on, and it seems to be random. I believe that my autonumbering format is correct, but that the numbering must obviously be continued. A journey to *Format > Document > Numbering > Paragraph > Continue Numbering* has been unsuccessful. The fundamental numbering of the paragraphs is incorrect, but apart from the *Continue Numbering* solution, I cannot think of anything. When I created the document, I copied and pasted from previous headings, and I can?t help but think that this is the source of my problems. Any help you guys can provide would be much appreciated, and again, I am really looking forward to contributing to this list. Thanks, Robert -- Robert Rogge 93-423-1784
