Hi ! If there are no important problems out there, perhaps you can help me with mine. A friend and I put together a book before Christmas, using version 8, and I ran into a numbering problem. We began the book with an introduction, maps, stories, copies of wills, etc, numbering about 52 pages. Then we printed five generations of the family, using FO, Reports, Books, Indented (outline numbering), and changing the page numbers so that the first page was page 53. It made a beautiful report, except for the fact that the index did not change numbers, so that what was on my page 53, it showed as page 1. We were in a hurry to get it finished, so we just made the report in two parts, each starting on page 1. Did I miss something? Can someone tell me what I did wrong? Christina Hoffman

Send the report to an RTF file and after changing the page numbers in your word processor, generate the index after you have done all the editing you want to do. You could even send several book reports to RTF files, combine them all into one file, and then in MSWord, generate one index for the whole lot. Wayne League
