Hey Carol

My guess is somewhere around that anchored frame, you have an instance
of a paragraph tag that is resetting the numbering. Usually, a para
tag is applied before (and after) an anchored frame, maybe something
there is throwing things off.

You could check if any overrides have crept in when you removed those
captions. An easy way to look is to use the arrow keys and stop when
you see a tag with an asterisk in front of it. If that be the case,
reapply the _clean_ Number skip tag. You might also want to check the
Numbering tab in the Paragraph Designer for the temperamental tags.

I usually knock off these tag troubles by reimporting all the para
tags from the template, or any _well_behaved_ file.

I have a procedure with 7 steps. Step 1 uses the Number-Restart tag. Steps 2 through 7 use the Number tag. I use the Number-Skip tag to include non-numbered paragraphs in a step.

I also use the Number-Skip tag for non-numbered paragraphs that hold anchored frames. When an anchored frame contains artwork with captions, the number of the step following the paragraph with the artwork and captions suddenly resets to 1. I am not kidding. It is completely bizarre.
