Hi all,

i want a numbered paragraph, i.e. 1.1.1.1. paragraph title
using amsbook. the hitherto structure is
\part
\chapter
\section
\subsection
\subsubsection

at this place i want a further subsection by continued numbering. I
already saw, that this can be achieved by using

\renewcommand\paragraph{%
\@startsection{paragraph}% section name
{4}% section level
{\z@}% indentation
{-3.25ex\@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}% before skip
{1.5ex \@plus .2ex}% afterskip
{\bfseries}}% font

Where exactly do I have to insert these lines? The definition part
before the \begin{document} command won´t work.

Thanks a lot,
Martin

Now the problem: I get the error: You can´t use '\spacefactor' in
vertical mode

actually these two lines shouldn´t appear in the original post, so
please ignore them.

Hm. I can certainly do it. But you shouldn't ignore the lines, you
also shouldn't ignore the link I gave you. I'm rather certain that
your problem ("The definition part before the \begin{document}
command won´t work.") is related to it.

You should also read the following:

amsbook hard codes a level of tocdepth of 3. I think you can use
more levels by defining the missing command manually. I don't know
if it matters somewhere what value you use. At least in your example
I get the same result with 0pt than with 80pt.

\documentclass{amsbook}
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{4}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{4} %
\expandafter\def\csname r@tocindent4\endcsname{0pt}

\begin{document}

\tableofcontents
\part{Part}
\chapter{Chapter}
\section{section}
\subsection{subsection}
\subsubsection{subsubsection}
\paragraph{paragraph}
\end{document}
