Thanks for your reply Sean, 

I think the decision was made to combine the chapters into only a few files for file management reasons (i.e. to have four files to deal with instead of fifty (or whatever). It wasn't my decision to combine multiple chapters into one file, and I did bring up the idea of separating each chapter into it's own file. In fact, I even tried a test of breaking the first two chapters into separate files and it worked fine. However, the decision to have multiple chapters in one file has been made, and I'm following my instructions.  

In response to your third paragraph, I currently am using paragraph numbering (<n+>) in all formats but the first one of each file (which I'm numbering manually in each new file for now--again, not my decision). 

In response to your last paragraph, I am also using <$volnum> for the section numbering, which works beautifully. Given having multiple chapters in one file, I guess it sounds like there's no better way to deal with this at this point. I just wanted to be sure. Thanks much for your help. 

Jayney
