Auto page-numbering wierdness - Adobe Indesign Windows

[JohnO@adobeforums.com]

I have a book I'm trying to put together with auto page numbering. (ID
2.0.2)

I started these docs assuming manual numbering, and switched to auto this
morning. As I build the book, there are two problems. Here's my book
display:

Intro i-x
Ch 01 1-46
Ch 02 1-10
Ch 03 1-42
Ch 04 1-38

The pages are actually numbered:
Intro i-x
Ch 01 1-46
Ch 02 47-56
Ch 03 11-52
Ch 04 43-80

What's up with Chap 3? The auto page numbering button is checked on all the
docs, I resaved, opened a new book, did it again on another machine, no joy.

Messing around with any old chapter anywhere...it's always the third doc
that goes nuts. This is insane.

I hope I'm not stating the bleeding obvious here, but have you repaginated lately?

Add this to the "Delete the Preferences" list. Four hours wasted on a
programming bug.

Do you mean you have fixed the problem by deleting your preferences?

That is a fair question, but yes, I just about wore the letters off that
one. :-)

As I'm replying here...I'm adding index entries and after about seven...ID
just vanishes. Crash-arino. And the index, along with a dozen entries, is
now completely corrupted.

And now my author send me garbage. Where's the beer?

Yes.
