Bad Autonumbers

[Randall C. Reed]

Good point Fred. My craziness is due to the fact that some are working
continuously, then another file comes up and BANG, I'm back to 001
again.  Not good...
 
Thanks!
 
R.

Just to amplify a bit:
 
If you set a file's paragraph numbering properties to "Restart", you 
cannot have a mixture of continuing and resetting counter values. 
The "Restart" setting affects *all* paragraph numbering series and 
there is no way for any of them to continue from the preceding 
file's value. 
 
But if you set the properties to "Continue", it *is* possible to reset 
a specific paragraph numbering series by formatting a paragraph 
with an autonumber formula that explicitly sets the appropriate 
counter elements in the series definition to the desired values.
