Just curious.
In my experience, this is done by people coming from MS Word and/or unfamiliar with how FM books work. I seem to recall someone posting to this list that they were using a single file so their figure numbering would be continuous throughout the book. Sigh... IMHO, there is no good reason for ever creating a single-file 300-page manual in FM. Richard ------ Richard G.
