The problem are these two synonyms:
\let \getnumber \getcounter % [name] \let \convertednumber \getcounter % [name]
There is a \convertedcounter but no \getcounter.
@Thomas: You can \rawcounter to print only the numeric value of the counter or \convertedcounter for a formatted form of the counter (you can apply a conversion, e.g. romannumerals or add a prefix, e.g. the current chapter or section number).

Ah, thank you Wolfgang! \rawcounter is sufficient for me in my real-life case, but I assume you will want to add \getcounter? (And are the number synonyms here to stay, or will they be deleted?)
they might stay as they are in manuals but best start using the counter names (reason: a,b,c is counting but not numbering) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
