Hi, all.

I am trying to set up a mechanism to use an absolute numbering scheme for 
certain paragraphs that is *independent* of the other numbering in the document.

For example, I may have a Heading 1 that increases 1, 2, 3, etc., Heading 2 
that increases 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc. (and gets reset to .1 in each Heading 1), 
etc.

But, independent of these, I have some paragraphs (currently inside tables) 
that need to have a number that also auto-increments (like "Spec 1", "Spec 2", 
etc.) but *completely* independently from the chapter and section numbering! 
The reason I want to use *automatically* is obvious ... if I insert a paragraph 
into the document with that format, I want to have all the later ones after 
that point automatically get updated with the auto-number.

I looked for a Autonumber Format in Building Block that I could use for this 
purpose (in the Paragraph Designer), but no luck. Getting the letters "Spec " 
in there is easy, but there does not seem to be a numbering scheme that I can 
use for this ...

So ... is there any way to achieve the desired result?
