771.0. "Design question--TOC page numbers don't match text" by PNEUMA::ILSLEY (Yoyodyne consultant....) Thu Aug 06 1987 18:35

How are page numbers passed to the table of contents?

For a local design, I changed the page numbers from chapter-oriented
to sequential. This design has numbered headings and chapter-oriented
tables and figures. The page numbers come out correctly within chapters,
but in the table of contents they are still chapter-oriented. I can't
find anything in the .design file that specifies the format for page
numbers.

771.1Found the answerPNEUMA::ILSLEYYoyodyne consultant....Mon Aug 10 1987 17:0712
Never mind, I found the answer to my question in the MILSPEC .design and
.gdx files. I used  

   \newif\ifnumberbychapter \numberbychapterfalse   etc.

from the chapter macro in the .design file and the

  <string>(_numberbychapter\FALSE)

from the .gdx file. (At least I assume it's in the .gdx file -- I worked 
backwards from the .stt file.)
