William and Sean, 

Starting with FM6, and continuing with FM7, I do a variation of continuous numbering by setting my front-matter page numbers to small roman and my text-page numbers to arabic, like real books do. This requires setting the first page number in the first text chapter to one greater than the last front-matter page number, but the rest to continue. 

I like it, but it is more trouble. 

I do, however, number my chapters, and I am presently just setting the chapter number when I start it, since I cannot, regretttably, do all chapters at the same time. 

By the way, Sean, thanks for the Ctrl-A tip for selecting all files. I didn't realize that would work.
