Hi, Harold: It's not clear what you're really after. When you say "count work packages," does that mean you want a list of them all, or just the total, the work-package number as part of each TOC entry and as part of each index entry, or something else? If I understand your request correctly, this could work for you: If you've defined the TOC-suffix paragraph formats with autonumber formats, then the numbers reflect exactly what you describe - each TOC entry counter is influenced by its predecessor. * For the TOC: to capture the source paragraph's autonumber, in the Table of Contents Specification on the TOC reference page, find the example line for the workpackage paragraph - something like workpackageTOC. Add the building block <$paranum[workpackage]> before the <$paratext> building block and regenerate from the book file. TOC entries will capture the workpackage paragraph's autonumber for each occurrence of the workpackage paragraph throughout the book. Add the <$paranum[workpackage]> building block before <$pagenum> on every example line whose entry you want the workpackage number to precede the entry. * For the index: to capture the workpackage autonumber for every index entry, add <$paranum[workpackage]> before <$pagenum> of the IndexIX example paragraph in the Index Specification on the index reference page and regenerate. As far as I know, there's no way to capture the autonumber for a specific index level (Level1IX, Level2IX, etc.). It's all entries or none.
