Mike,
I'm assuming your document class is derived from "article". I don't
know what else you have in the preamble, but in order for this to
work one needs to make sure that no other package re-defines the
counters after your modifications. So I would add the two lines
\renewcommand\theequation{\arabic{equation}}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
at the very end of the preamble. If this still doesn't work, I would
empty out the preamble except for the two lines above, and switch to
a basic article class (article, or koma-article), so you can be sure
that \theequation is really used as expected.

Dear Jens
In my preamble after the line
\renewcommand{\theequation}{\arabic{equation}}
I added the line
@addtoreset{equation}{section}
which had nor effect. Have I followed your suggestion correcty,
have I mispelt it. What next?
Mike

Dear Uwe
Nearly there. The command in preamble numbers the equation in each
section .without the section number. I want the equation number in
ascending order irrespective of section number e.g. 1, 2, 3 etc for
section n (before they were numbered n.1, n.2 etc. I need to turn
of a section counter maybe.
Any help
I should say I am using a J. Fluid Mech cls layout file which
should do the trick since this is the journal eqn number style.

Any idea how to change Eqn numbering from numbering by section to
absolute numbering?
Add this line to your preamble or at the beginning of your
document in
ERT (assure that you use amsmath explicitely in the document
preferences):
\renewcommand{\theequation}{\arabic{equation}}
regards Uwe
Try the following (one additional line):
renewcommand\theequation{\arabic{equation}}
