Restart autonum field numbering

[danasdaddy]

I'm using Autonum Fields to add Unit numbers to my doc. I'd like to restart
the numbering when a change to a new section, but I can;t figure out how to
do that. Can anyone help?

If you use AUTONUM fields for headings as well as body text, the body text
numbering will restart after each numbered heading. Beyond that, you cannot
control the AUTONUM fields.

You should use SEQ fields instead; these can be restarted via the \r switch,
and you can easily create as many sequences as you like.

Thanks, that did the trick!
