Well, others have introduced you to the concept of $paranum and
$paranumonly, which may be what you were missing (in the FM 6 User
Guide, see pp. 346-350). But based on what you said, I'm wondering if
that's the only problem:

What do you mean by "chapter ToC"? And what's "toc12" -- the name of one
of your heading paragraph formats? It's an odd choice of name (compared
to, say, "Head1"), so I'm wondering what you really mean by "paragraph
numbering tag" (there's no such thing; there are paragraph tags, or
formats, and they may have an autonumber as one of their settings).

If that's really true, you're doing something seriously wrong. The whole
point of adding an autonumber to a paragraph tag definition is so that
it will -- you know -- automatically have a number. Are you really
manually adding numbers? If so, you don't have autonumbers, and you need
to read pp. 113-122 of the User Guide. 

HTH!
