      Hi guys!

      Please I will aprecciate your help.

      I made a Book in indesing that included 4 parts o chapters. Each one with 2 numbered list included in paragraph style:

      Numbered list 1 con level 1 (this way: 1. abc)

      Numbered list 2 con level 2 (this way: 1.1 abc)

      Those 4 chapters share both Paragraph styles (because I used a template to get the same styles , etc). So, each chapter start with subtitles that have level 1 and also after level 2, this way:

      Capitulo 1( first indd file)

      1.- abc (paragraph style “X” con level 1 in numbered list)

      1.1.- def (paragraph style “y” con level 2 in numbered list)

      Capitulo 2 (second indd file)

      1.- abc (paragraph style “X” con level 1 in numbered list)

      1.1.- abc (paragraph style “y” con level 2 in numbered list)

      The problem is when I create my TOC in Book way. Because my TOC need styles to include, but when I add my paragraph styles “X” and “y”, my TOC is wrong. Because It create each number list of subtitles in continue way, this is wrong because each chapter must start in : 1. abc , then 1.1 abc. I mean, the same that individual files before creating Book.

      And the worse is that my files (chapters) also change!!!! So I get this: (in my TOC and my individual indd files)

      chapter 1:

      1. abc

      1.1 abc

      chapter 2:

      2. abc (it must be: 1. abc again)

      2.1 abc

      I hope you understand. I get complicated with this topics.

      pd. Its necesary not to have any copy (base on) of my Paraghap Styles (“X”, “y”), because i created for a few variants of “X” , “y” like space before paraghap. Because if it is, i will have to make local overrides instead create more syles just for few changes, and not get complicated so much creating TOC?

      Thanks a lot and sorry about my english.
