Hi Gary
For what it's worth, your present system will work for a TOC in one
document, but not a TOC created for several documents. Not least, that is
because there's nothing in each document that says "this is chapter 5" or
"this is chapter 6". You could try setting the starting number of the { SEQ
chapter } field with something like { SEQ chapter \r 5 }. I haven't tested
that.
As far as I know, the only way to achieve what you want is:
1. Set up the page numbering as described at
I want to include the chapter number with the page number in the Header -
how can I do this?

2. Set up the Table of Contents as described at

There's more detailed information about a multi-document TOC at

Hope this helps.
