Numbering problems in a book

Hi

 

Frame 10, Windows 7, 

 

Is there some esoteric secret to getting the numbering to behave in a book?
I've been bitten by this before so I've been quite careful this time only to
access the numbering dialog through the book window. Despite that I still
get a warning of conflicts between numbering in the book and in the
document. Then I find that when I set the numbering for pages and paragraphs
they rarely stick. I'm running update book but I'm wondering if there is
something else that I'm missing. At the moment my document is showing the
page numbers following on from each chapter into the next but the total
number of pages is showing the number of pages in the chapter rather than
the total number of pages in the book. 

 

I seem to have a lot of trouble getting this to work and considering
FrameMaker's reputation for stability once it's set up it doesn't seem to be
very reliable.
