How do I Reset all my table numbers in a book?

Hi Tina-Lousie,

FrameMaker changes the numbering of paragraphs only, after you updated the book.

You changed this in the volume tab. Is the volume number the one which does not update? Or the table numbering which is the paragraph numbering?

Best regards, Winfried

Make sure the Numbering Properties in the .book menu match those for the afflicted .fm files.

With that settled, or in parallel with that, if this is the numbering of the Table Title, that's usually controlled by a Paragraph Format of that name (or similar), and it's not uncommon to have two variants of it, such as:
TableTitle with a /Numbering\ property of perhaps:
T:<n+>.\t
and TableTitle=1 with a /Numbering\ property of perhaps:
T:<n=1>.\t

Any stray instances of TableTitle=1 are going to reset the numbering from that point forward.

It's hard to troubleshoot without seeing the file, but you may need do it in the Paragraph tab of the Numbering Properties dialog box.

If you can't figure it out, I can meet with you via zoom and help you troubleshoot it. Please contact me offlist: rick at frameexpert dot com
