The major section does reset them to start at one again.<br><br><br>For this to work, the figures, tables and headings will have to be in the same numbered series (e.g. F: or H:) but you also need to use placeholders - the empty building block < > (which does not alter, nor show the value) - for counters that should not be affected.<br><br>One suggestion is to create a grid of your numbering needs, so you can more easily see where you need to use the various types of numbering building block - display only (e.g. <n>), incrementing (e.g. <n+>) or ignoring (< > and note the space between the less-than and greater-than symbols)<br><br><br>Here is how I would setup your formats, assuming only three levels of headings (as per your example).? I've added a counter for tables as well, so there are 5 total numbering positions.<br><br>H:<n+>??????????????? 1 Heading (increment 1st level heading, reset all lower-level numbers: figures,<br>???????????????????????????????? tables and sub-headings)<br><br><br>H:<n>-<n+>< >< >< >??

Figure 2-4<br><br>and so forth.? As I'm not completely clear on how you are using either the $VolNum or $ChapNum variables (or corresponding numbering building blocks,) I have not shown those, and trust that this example will get you on the right path fairly quickly.<br><br>?
