Can I edit the <$tblsheetnum> variable to start at a number other than 1?

Hey gang,

I have a document with a multi-page table that needs to be inserted as a change page. The table starts at Sheet 4 and runs through Sheet 9. Is there a way to edit the <$tblsheetnum>variable to start at 4 rather than 1, or do I have to insert a text block with an autonumber style in the caption?

Can any of you hoopy froods help a brother out?

Thanks in advance,
