Table and Figure Autonumbering

I am currently using FrameMaker 8.0 and having a problem with the autonumbering of my tables and figures.

Is there a way to have these as seperate numbering but still referencing the Chapter number?

E.g. CHAPTER 1

Table 1.1
Figure 1.1
Figure 1.2
Table 1.2

CHAPTER 2

Figure 2.1
Table 2.1
Figure 2.2
Table 2.2

Thanks in advanced!
Skye

    Skye,

    If your chapters are separate files, then you should be using the
    $chapnum variable and control that at the book level.

    If all of your chapters are in a single file, then you have to define
    your autonumber sequences to use the matrix method and have the
    chapter number paratag reset the sub-ordinate paratag autonumbers.
    This is explained in the "Using multiple counters in an autonumber
    format" section of the Help file.

    The first method is the easiest to use and maintain.
