Is the paragraph numbering at the book level set to Continue Numbering
from Previous Paragraph?
Hope this helps!

Numbering usually works extremely well, provided all the paragraph tags
are in the same text flow. Either of these instances creates a different

To address the initial problem:
The only repair I have found that works is to rebuild the files anchored
frames from the point at which the numbering is broken. To be extra sure,
rebuild them all.
Save a copy of your file, in the working file delete all anchored frames,

Sounds as if it's a legacy document that was never changed to support
the $chapnum and $volnum variables that were introduced in 6.x.
Assuming it's using chapter numbers as part of the numbering scheme,
of course, correct strings would look something like:
F:Figure $chapnumn+.

Hi, Howard,
I had the exact same problem. I discovered that the problem was an
override.
I was working on a manual. I named the paragraph tag for my figure
titles Figure. When I copied portions of text with graphics from
another file into my manual, everything appeared to be just dandy, but a
A couple things to check:
First, have you verified that no other tags are using the X: numbering
track? Having another tag using the same track involved will screw up
the numbering in no time.
Second, check the numbering properties for the files to make sure that

Hi,
You said that your numbered paragraphs are in text boxes.
Do you mean text frames? These won't be in the same text flow
as your regular text. Therefore that might account for any
pecularities.

You won't like my answer, but it's the only solution I've found to the
problem you describe.
You need to make a copy of the file, delete all anchored frames, then open
the copy and working file side by side.
In the copy, use find to locate each anchored frame.
For each anchored frame, create a
This may be being caused by having a mixture of graphic frames and anchored
frames or text frames poorly placed in anchored frames.
I use a similar system for academic books and reports. Graphics are placed
in anchored frames with a text frame within it for the caption. In doing a
limited test, I

Very strange. I should have done more testing. I swear that the only
instance I checked before spouting off is the way I wrote. In rechecking, I
found subsequent text frames in anchored frames didn't have flow tags. I
checked another report and couldn't find any text frames in anchored frames
First, thank you to all who have responded so far. I haven't yet had an
opportunity to evaluate and implement your suggestions, but I certainly will. I
had thought of doing what Eric Dunne suggested, but had held off trying that
solution.
