Line numbering tables in FM11?

Tori -

 

I've not had to work with line numbering, so I wonder whether numbering
the rows of the tables will suffice.

 

The numbering in each table could start with "1," and when combined with
each table's number (I assume that the tables are numbered), this scheme
will provide unique identification for each row.  For example, "Table
14-3, row 98."

 

If your customer can't work with such a solution because "it's different
from how Word does it," then you _do_ have a challenge.

 

Regards,

Dave Stamm

It turns out there's an additional wrinkle to this: client now wants
line numbers to be contiguous through the entire, 470+ page document.
Because Word does it this way.  

So I'm not sure Frame is going to give the client what they want for
this job, and I'm definitely sure that autonumbered paras within the
tables would not satisfy client.

Bugger.

Is adding an incrementing autonumber to the para format of the leftmost
table cell out of the question?
