Hi, Thanks for the many replies. It is unanimous that FM is just giving a warning that the numbering of a document that also appears in another book has changed on updating the current book. I understand that there is nothing that can be done to avoid that. I would like the warning to just

Hi Stephen, I don't think there is any way to avoid this. When you have a common document in your book, its page numbering will be set to how it was numbered the last time it was updated, either in the current book or any other book that it is contained in. That is where the mismatch may come

The inconsistent numbering properties message is only a warning. If you ignore it, FrameMaker will do exactly what you want it to do: it will use the numbering properties as set in the book file. FrameMaker warns you so that you can make sure that nothing has inadvertently been changed

The error message appears because the numbering properties are inconsistent. Open all of your documents and the book. Start with your book and make sure the numbering is correct (from your book, right click each document and select Numbering from the menu to view the numbering properties). When

You CAN do it this way if you want, but it is much easier to just set the numbering properties at the book level and update the book. Dismiss the inconsistency messages and when the update is done, the numbering will be as you set it. There is no need to check each document. For page numbering

, as these are functionally different elements, and have different formatting (usually) and different context rules. It is difficult to scope your numbering queries, as it sounds as if you are working from a template created elsewhere. If this is the case, we do not know how the TOC is formed from the chapter templates
