I'm not sure what work-around you are referring to. I have read the Pages, Numbers and Formulas and Functions manual, and there doesn't appear to be anything that refers to this. I suppose I could set something up using the row number etc., but as I am trying to help someone who is a writer and does not use Numbers, this is not a good solution. She works in Pages and doesn't do formulas, etc. I did check other Word processors and this is dead easy to do in Word, Open Office and Nisus Writer. Mellel, however, is like Pages and insists on re-starting numbering in each new row of the table. The only work-around I can find is to go into each cell and set the numbering to start with a specific number so it follows consecutively from the row above. While this will work fine for a final draft, it doesn't facilitate on-going editing of a document. Looks like I'll have to advise her to use a different word processor.
