Chapter and appendix numbering in a TOC

[Jon Harvey]

Hi all,

 

I'm stumped over a simple problem: My book includes 12 chapters and
several appendices. Throughout the book, I am using the variable
"<$chapnum>" to display the numbering of chapters and appendices. In the
book file, I am resetting the numbering to "1" and "Alphabetic" for the
first appendix.Therefore, as I page through the document, I see that
FrameMaker correctly numbers the chapter and appendix headings. In other
words, the last chapter is Chapter 12 and the first appendix is Appendix
A.

 

However, when I generate the TOC, the TOC displays "Appendix M" (not A)
after "Chapter 12". I took over this doc project from another writer, so
I'm not sure how the numbering is supposed to work. Any thoughts on the
RIGHT way to do this?
