Hi George, I solved the problem, with a bit of Latex code.
The excellent Latex faq on the issue: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=running-nos lists several solutions. The simplest one works for me. Put the following in the preamble: \usepackage{chngcntr} \counterwithout{table}{chapter} (change {table} to {figure} if needed).
