Newbie alert! - Page numbering issues.

Let me see if I get this straight:
Chapter numbers in Alpha and page numbers in

The TOC for the individual sections are set up like this:

Section one has the following pages:
1-A
1-B
1-C

Section2 has:
2-A
2-B
3-C

...

section 4:
4-A
4-B

And this formatting is used nowhere else in the book. So only the sectional TOCs have this numbering?
It sounds like you need some kind of compound variable.

I tried experimenting but I am still new at this too. The way I thought I could see to do it, is if you can create a character format to change the numerical chapter number to an alpha chapter number.

Tell me if I have the right idea of what your numbering is trying to do.

Art,
Each page is sequentially double numbered in a single file. The file represents the TOC for a section, of which there are four in the book.

There's also a main TOC in the front matter of the book but the page numbering there isn't problematic. Sequential, singular, Roman numbering is used (i, ii, iii, iv etc.).

Thanks for helping out.

John,
Could you clarify the numbering scheme, please?
It's not clear to me if each page is double numbered, so that the numbers in your example are sequential pages in a single file, or if they represent pages in a series of discrete files.
