Yes I did see Rick's post. Thanks Rick for your help!! I could feel the gray hair popping out.<br><br>Luckily it is a simple fix. The chapter numbers have their own style and all I had to do was to make Alignment = Left and kept Position = End of Paragraph. The chapter number remains at the right margin. <br>

<div></div>That was hard to explain. I believe the number is there, I can select

a wild guess. If the file is one chapter in a book and normally gets its

Maybe the conversion for some reason interferes with the ability to recall
that previous value, and everything will be fine once the entire book is
converted and updated. :-)<br><br><br>Richard G. Combs<br>Senior Technical
