At the moment I have the following in my document:
    In the chapters 7 to 12 a more in depth description of the
functionalities will be given.
For this document it is not a real problem. (I do not expect the chapter
structure to change often.) But it would be nicer to get the chapter
numbers
auto generated. Is this possible?
I (and I suppose others) don't understand your question.
Does not \chapter work ?
Sorry, communication is not my strong point. :-{
What I mean. I have something like:
\chapter{General description}
.
.
This is explained in chapters 7 to 12.
.
.
\chapter{another}
.
.
\chapter{first explaining}  % this is (now) chapter 7
 .
.
\chapter{last explaining} % this is (now) chapter 12
When chapters are added, moved or removed. The chapter numbers in the above
sentence have to be changed manually. As a real programmer I am lazy and
want the computer do it for me. :-D
This is a 32 years old TeX feature -- i.e. it doesn't hurt to know
TeX, as I've already said.
See pontus's answer.
