I am editing a manual and when updating the TOC all of the figures do
not come in to the TOC. The reason is that my figures have multiple
pages (i.e. figure 1-1 sheet 1 of 2) Sheet two would go to a new
figure number (i.e. 1-2) and I need it to be figure 1-1 sheet 1 of 2
and figure 1-1 sheet 2 of 2) I Have tried to copy the figure
number, but when I add another figure it throws the figures back to
figure 1-1 and figure 1-2 sheet 2 of 2. Is there something I can do
to have figure 1-1 sheet 2 of 2 placed in my table of contents and
also have this figure duplicated. Sometimes in our documents we have
like 10 or 15 sheets and these all have to have the same figure number
(i.e Figure 1-1 sheet 8 of 10 etc.) Please help.

I'm not _quite_ sure what your setup is yet.

I've had situations like this before ("1/x" when a figure doesn't fit on
one page). You simply caption each individual part-picture (say, that'll
leave you with 1-1, 1-2, and 1-3). Then, you delete the numbers 1-2 and
1-3, and insert a cross-reference on the number before; or, you go
fiddle with the SEQ field (both numbers are SEQ fields) and insert the
switch that recreates the preceding number in the second field).

Only when the three captions show the correct value can you expect the
"ToF-TOC" to show the correct values.
